Whether you are looking to enhance your aesthetics or restore the structural integrity of a damaged tooth, choosing the right restoration is essential. At Acorn Dental, we specialise in custom-made veneers, crowns, and onlays designed to blend seamlessly with your natural smile. These restorations are bonded to prepared teeth to restore health, function, and a youthful appearance. Identifying the right solution early—whether it’s a thin veneer for a front tooth or a durable crown for a molar—is the most effective way to protect your bite and prevent further fractures. Don’t delay—modern ceramic materials allow us to fix your smile with results that are as strong as they are beautiful.
Veneers: The Ultimate Aesthetic Enhancement
Veneers are thin, custom-made layers of porcelain or composite resin that bond to the front surfaces of your teeth. They are the gold standard for fixing discolouration, minor misalignments, or chips, providing a natural, radiant look with minimal tooth preparation.
Onlays: The Conservative Choice for Back Teeth
Designed for the back teeth, onlays restore only the damaged areas while preserving as much of your healthy natural tooth as possible. Typically made from high-strength ceramic, they provide a durable, long-lasting solution for teeth that have been weakened by decay or large old fillings.
Crowns: Total Protection and Strength
Often referred to as “caps,” crowns cover the entire visible portion of the tooth down to the gum line. We use premium ceramic and metal-free materials to ensure your crown looks like a natural tooth while providing the structural support needed for a complete, functional bite.
Master Technician Collaboration:
We work with world-class dental ceramists to ensure every restoration is a work of art. From the initial 3D scan to the final bonding, our team at Moseley, Barnt Green, and Blythe Valley Park ensures your new teeth are tailored perfectly to your unique facial features.

Book Appointment HereA post-crown is needed when a tooth is so badly decayed that there is not enough tooth structure left to support a crown on its own, i.e. when the tooth has broken off at the gum line leaving only the root(s). A root canal filling has or will be carried out by an endodontist to prepare the tooth. The post is a rod that is cemented into the root canal filling to provide an anchor on which to place a core (made of filling material) that keeps the crown (the part that resembles a tooth) securely in place.
You will need to have at least two visits. At the first visit, your dentist will prepare the tooth, take the impressions, make a note of the shade of your tooth, and fit a temporary restoration. At the second visit, your dentist will remove the temporary restoration and fit the permanent one. There will usually be about 2-4 weeks between appointments.
Not usually as patients are given a local anaesthetic. Once the anaesthetic has worn off, it is usual to feel mild discomfort and soreness at the injection site for a day or two.
Unless it is a full metal crown or onlay, we make every effort to match your new restoration to the adjacent teeth to reduce its visibility. It is very difficult to get a crown that matches perfectly due to the intricate details of a natural tooth. If you are very particular about the colour match of your restoration we can send your case to an expert technician that has an eye for high-end aesthetics.
Costs will vary according to the type of crown and the material used, however, prices start from £450 per restoration.
There are many variables (from diet to maintenance of oral hygiene) that determine how long a restoration will last, but we expect such restorations to give you a service of around 8-12 years.
