What Are Dental Crowns?

A dental crown is a custom-made cap placed over a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns can be used for: protecting weak or cracked teeth, restoring worn-down or broken teeth, supporting a tooth with a large filling, covering dental implants, improving the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth.

Types of Dental Crowns

  • Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) Crowns: A balance between durability and aesthetics.

The Dental Crown Procedure

The process for getting a dental crown typically takes two visits:

  • Consultation & Preparation: We examine the tooth, take digital impressions, and reshape it.
  • Temporary Crown: A temporary crown is placed while the permanent one is being made.
  • Permanent Crown Placement: The final crown is securely bonded to your tooth.
