double crown
Two kingdoms united
A double crown refers to two separate hair whorls on the scalp instead of the usual single spiral—visible as two distinct cowlicks that can make styling difficult.
In dentistry, a double crown is a telescopic prosthetic system where an inner crown fits over a prepared tooth and an outer crown attaches to a removable denture.
Historically, a double crown united the white crown of Upper Egypt and red crown of Lower Egypt, symbolizing unified rule over both kingdoms.
