Dental Crowns

When a tooth is too damaged for a filling, a crown offers a stronger, more complete solution. It helps protect the tooth, restore its shape, and keep your bite working the way it should—all while looking and feeling natural.

When Is a Crown the Right Choice?

We may recommend a crown if you have:

  • A tooth with significant decay or damage
  • A tooth that’s cracked or weakened
  • A tooth that’s been treated with a root canal
  • A dental implant that needs a permanent restoration

Crowns act like a protective cover, reinforcing the tooth and restoring its shape and appearance.

Materials That Support Your Smile

Every crown we place is custom-designed to fit your bite and look natural. We offer several durable, aesthetic options:

  • Esthetic zirconia: strong and natural-looking
  • Conventional zirconia: excellent durability and long-term performance
  • Porcelain fused to zirconia: for a lifelike appearance with added strength
  • All-porcelain: a metal-free option ideal for visible front teeth

We’ll help you choose the material that best fits your goals, the tooth’s location, and how much biting pressure it needs to handle.

What to Expect

Getting a crown usually involves two visits. At your first appointment, we’ll gently prepare the tooth, take impressions or digital scans, and place a temporary crown. Once your final crown is ready, we’ll carefully fit and bond it in place for a comfortable, natural result.

With good at-home care and regular checkups, your crown can keep your smile strong and healthy for many years.
