What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fully encases the visible portion of a damaged or worn tooth. Crowns are used to restore shape, size, strength, and appearance, allowing the tooth to function normally and blend seamlessly with your smile.
We offer several crown materials—including porcelain, ceramic, zirconia, and porcelain-fused-to-metal—depending on the tooth’s location, your aesthetic goals, and your budget.
When Do You Need a Dental Crown?
You may be a candidate for a dental crown if you have:
- A cracked, broken, or fractured tooth
- A tooth with a large filling and insufficient structure remaining
- Severe decay that cannot be treated with a regular dental filling
- A worn-down tooth from grinding (bruxism)
- A tooth that has undergone root canal therapy
- A missing tooth being replaced with a dental implant or bridge
The Crown Placement Process
- Initial Exam & Imaging
We assess the tooth using digital X-rays and intraoral cameras to determine the extent of damage and confirm the need for a crown. - Tooth Preparation
The tooth is gently reshaped to make room for the crown. We take digital impressions using our iTero scanner for maximum precision—no messy trays needed. - Temporary Crown Placement
While your final crown is being crafted at a dental lab, we place a natural-looking temporary crown for function and comfort. - Final Crown Placement
Once your custom crown is ready, we ensure the perfect fit, color match, and bite alignment before bonding it securely into place.
