Replacing Old, Failing or Loose Dental Crowns
Modern Dental Crown Replacement in Woking for Failing or Discoloured Crowns.
Dental Crown Replacement in Woking
Dental crowns placed many years ago can eventually show signs of wear, marginal leakage, dark gumline edges, or looseness. North Lane Dental Practice provides careful dental crown replacement for patients traveling from Woking, updating outdated or compromised restorations with modern all-ceramic alternatives.
Replacing an ageing crown stops oral bacteria from getting underneath compromised margins and causing hidden root decay. Our dentists remove the old crown safely, clean and evaluate the remaining tooth structure, and place a newly milled, precision-fitted porcelain or zirconia crown.
Our clinic at 38 North Lane in Aldershot is under 25 minutes from Woking via the A324 and A323, with free parking right outside. We help you resolve dark metallic borders, eliminate chronic food trapping, and regain full confidence in your smile.

Why do older crowns sometimes show a dark grey line at the gumline?
Older crowns often used a metal alloy base covered by porcelain. When gum tissue naturally recedes slightly over time, that dark metal edge becomes visible. Modern all-ceramic and zirconia crowns contain no metal, removing this issue entirely.
What are the common signs that an existing crown needs to be replaced?
Common signs include slight movement or looseness in the crown, localized sensitivity or pain, persistent food trapping, visible chipping of the porcelain, or dark staining at the margin.

The team are wonderful and very helpful. The dentist I saw was Dr Hema Rajah, who was absolutely amazing and a true artist at dentistry.
A big thank you to Dr Hema Rajah, Sophie, Abbey and Lucie.
I can honestly highly recommend North Lane Dental Practice to anyone (especially nervous patients).
Dr Hema and Sophie have been so helpful with advising me the best procedure to suit my needs and I feel completely at ease with them and trust them fully.
Abbey on reception has been so lovely and happy to answer any queries that I have.
For the first time in a long time, I actually look forward to my dental appointments.
I canβt wait to see my finished results in the months to come and would absolutely recommend to all!
From booking appointments, to the actual treatment and surgery. Everything is to the highest standard, and the friendly staff add to brilliant atmosphere.

Although originally very nervous and self conscious all the staff have been amazing and my dentist Dr Hema Rajah could not have been more patient and caring. After just a few months of Invisalign treatment my teeth already look so much better and I canβt wait to see the finished article. Little things make such a difference, a warm welcome when you arrive, a genuine catch up, plenty of parking, and appointments being always on time are just a few of the things that make this practice exceptional.
I love my new smile and look forward to seeing all the staff every time I visit! Lucie was so helpful and in all a lovely person thank you for all the chats and laughs never a dull moment when I arrive for my dental appointments :D Dr Hema is just amazing at what she does! thank you for being so helpful and getting my teeth so perfect they really are better then I ever expected!
