What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a custom-made, tooth-shaped cap that’s designed to cover the visible white surface of an individual tooth. It’s an excellent way to preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible while also rebuilding and strengthening it. Crowns can be crafted from several materials, and Dr. White will help you determine which one best fits your personal needs. Our office is proud to offer metal-free zirconia crowns as a solution that’s both incredibly durable and seamlessly lifelike. We also offer porcelain fused to metal, gold, and porcelain crowns.

This versatile treatment can offer a variety of solutions, like:

  • Strengthening a tooth that is so badly decayed that a filling can’t adequately treat it.
  • Repairing and fortifying a significantly damaged tooth that needs additional support.
  • Correcting noticeable cosmetic issues like chips, cracks, wear and tear, or stubborn stains.
  • Protecting a tooth that has been treated with root canal therapy.
  • Replacing missing teeth when used with a dental bridge or implant.

What Is the Process Like for Getting a Dental Crown?

First, Dr. White will carefully prepare the tooth or teeth that will be receiving the restoration by removing a thin layer of enamel from the damaged or weakened tooth. Then, detailed impressions are taken and sent to a trusted dental laboratory, where they’ll be used to create your permanent restoration. In the meantime, he’ll place a temporary crown to protect your smile and ensure that any disruptions to your daily routine are kept to a minimum until your next appointment. Once we receive the final product, you’ll return to our office so that we can cement it in place and make any final adjustments.

Dr. John White and his talented team can help your teeth look and feel their best for years to come with high-quality dental crowns. If your smile needs to be repaired, don’t hesitate to contact us!
