Dental Crowns

A versatile solution that can restore the structural integrity of a damaged tooth while enhancing its appearance.

A dental crown, often referred to as a “cap,” is a custom-made restoration that covers the entire visible portion of a tooth. Crafted from durable materials such as porcelain, ceramic, or metal alloys, crowns are designed to replicate the natural shape, size, and color of your tooth. 

Dental crowns, when cemented into place, fully encase the entire visible portion of a tooth that lies at and above the gum line.

Reasons for dental crowns

  1. To Protect a Weak Tooth:

    • Teeth weakened by extensive decay, large fillings, or fractures can benefit from the added strength and protection provided by a dental crown.
  2. To Restore a Broken or Damaged Tooth:

    • Dental crowns are an effective solution for restoring teeth that are broken, cracked, or severely worn down due to grinding.
  3. After Root Canal Treatment:

    • Teeth that have undergone root canal therapy may require the added protection of a crown to prevent fracture and restore function.
  4. To Improve the Appearance of a Tooth:

    • Crowns can be used for cosmetic purposes to improve the shape, size, or color of a tooth, enhancing the overall aesthetics of your smile.
  5. To Anchor a Dental Bridge:

    • Dental crowns are often used as abutments to anchor a dental bridge, replacing one or more missing teeth.
  6. For Dental Implant Restoration:

    • Crowns are the final component in restoring a dental implant, providing a natural-looking and functional replacement for a missing tooth.

The Dental Crown Process:

  1. Consultation:

    • Your journey to a restored smile begins with a consultation. We’ll assess your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine if a dental crown is the right option for you.
  2. Tooth Preparation:

    • The tooth receiving the crown is prepared by removing a small amount of enamel. This ensures a snug fit for the crown.
  3. Impressions:

    • Precise impressions of your prepared tooth are taken to create a custom-fitted crown.
  4. Temporary Crown (if needed):

    • While your permanent crown is being fabricated, you may receive a temporary crown to protect your prepared tooth.
  5. Final Placement:

    • Once your custom crown is ready, it is securely placed, restoring both the function and aesthetics of your tooth.
