Galleria Dental Clinic makes dental crowns a 5-minute walk from Jamsil Station (Exit 4) in Songpa, Seoul. A crown is a restoration that fully covers a tooth weakened by large decay, a fracture, or root canal treatment, protecting it and rebuilding its shape and chewing function. It is used when a simple filling or inlay cannot restore the tooth.

Crown materials

  • Zirconia — strong and close to the natural tooth shade; used widely on both molars and front teeth
  • All-ceramic (e.max and similar) — excellent translucency, well suited to esthetic front teeth
  • PFM (porcelain-fused-to-metal) — a traditional crown with porcelain over a metal core
  • Gold — fit and wear close to natural teeth, an advantage on back molars

How a crown is made

  1. Diagnosis & preparation — the decay and nerve status are checked and the tooth is shaped to receive the crown
  2. Digital impression — an oral scanner (Primescan) captures the tooth for a precise fit
  3. Temporary crown — protects the tooth while the final crown is made
  4. Fitting & bite adjustment — the finished crown is bonded and the bite is fine-tuned
A root-canal-treated tooth becomes brittle, so finishing it with a crown matters. At Galleria Dental Clinic the same prosthodontics-trained dentist handles treatment through to the crown.

FAQ

Dental crown FAQ

Where can I get a dental crown near Jamsil Station?
Galleria Dental Clinic makes dental crowns a 5-minute walk from Jamsil Station (Exit 4) at #206, A-dong, Galleria Palace, 212 Olympic-ro, Songpa-gu, Seoul, treated personally by Dr. Byungwook Lee.
Zirconia vs all-ceramic crown — what's the difference?
Zirconia is very strong and natural in color, used widely on molars and front teeth. All-ceramic crowns such as e.max offer greater translucency that suits esthetic front teeth. The best material for your tooth is recommended at the consultation.
How much does a crown cost in Jamsil, Seoul?
Crown fees depend on the material (zirconia, all-ceramic, PFM, or gold) and on any prior treatment such as root canal. Most are not covered by insurance, and an exact estimate is given after a diagnosis.
How long does a crown last?
It depends on oral hygiene, bite habits, and the material. With regular check-ups and cleanings to care for the gums and tooth around the crown, it can last a long time.
