Dental Crowns

Restore Decayed, Damaged or Worn-Down Teeth with Dental Crowns

Most teeth require dental crowns due to cracks, old damaged fillings, or in order to correct bite problems. A dental crown is a protective porcelain shell or “cap” that fits over the original tooth, encasing it to restore function and aesthetic appeal.

Dental Crowns are Simple, with Our Experienced Dental Crown Dentists

First, one of our skilled dentists will gently anesthetize the affected tooth and surrounding gums. We will then prepare the tooth for the crown and make a mold of it. The permanent crown to be fitted on the tooth is made at a laboratory, and usually takes from 2-4 weeks to complete. In the meantime, you will wear a temporary crown, until the permanent dental crown arrives at our dental office and can be carefully cemented into place.

Dental crowns are also often used in conjunction with other dental procedures such as dental bridges, dental implants, and smile makeovers.
