CROWNS

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap used to replace damaged or missing teeth to restore the appearance of the smile and help protect against further damage and conditions such as gum disease. Your dentist will help you decide which type of crown is best for you after a thorough evaluation of your condition.

​

Dental crowns are placed during a series of two office visits. This first involves preparing the tooth and creating an impression from which the crown is made. The tooth is also thoroughly cleaned and shaped during this appointment, and a temporary crown is placed. The permanent crown is then placed with cement after a few weeks.

With new materials now available we can create beautiful results for:

• Spaces Between the Teeth (Diastemas)

• Unnatural Porcelain-to-Metal Crowns

• Dark Lines at the Gum Line of Crowns

• Broken or Chipped Teeth

• Unsightly, Stained or Washed-out Fillings

• Teeth Discolored by Old Fillings

• Misshapen or Crooked Teeth
