What are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are custom-fitted coverings placed over a tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are recommended for teeth that have been weakened by decay, damage, or as a final step in root canal treatment. They are crafted to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, enhancing both the health and aesthetics of your smile.
Benefits of Dental Crowns
Choosing dental crowns offers several benefits:
- Durability: Crowns are designed to last many years with proper care, providing a long-term solution for damaged teeth.
- Cosmetic Enhancement: Crowns improve the appearance of your smile by covering stains, chips, and misshapen teeth.
- Protection: By encasing the tooth, crowns protect it from further damage and decay.
- Customization: Each crown is custom-made to match the color and contour of your existing teeth for a natural look.

Dental Crown Procedure Explained
Getting a dental crown typically involves two visits:

We also offer same-day crowns using CEREC® technology, allowing you to leave with a permanent crown in just one appointment.
