Ceramic and porcelain crowns that restore strength to damaged teeth and blend with your smile.
Restorative Dentistry
What Are
Dental Crowns?
A crown is a custom “cap” placed over a tooth to restore its shape, size, and function. It surrounds the entire visible portion of the tooth, holding together structure that decay, cracks, or a large filling have weakened. Each crown is shaped and shaded to blend in with the teeth around it.
Protect weak or fractured teeth
Restore teeth after root canal therapy
Replace large, failing fillings
Support a dental bridge or cover a dental implant
Improve the appearance of discolored or misshapen teeth
OPTIONS
Our Approach to
Dental Crowns
We choose the crown material and the approach based on where the tooth sits, how much strength it needs, and what it has to support.
Ceramic Crowns
Ceramic crowns provide excellent durability and are designed to match the color of natural teeth. They are ideal for both front and back teeth, balancing strength with appearance.
Crowns After Root Canals & Failed Fillings
A tooth that has had root canal therapy or carries a large, failing filling is left structurally weak. A crown caps and protects it so the tooth can handle normal chewing again.
Porcelain Crowns
Porcelain crowns deliver outstanding aesthetics, reflecting light like natural enamel. They are often recommended for highly visible front teeth where appearance matters most.
Crowns for Implants & Bridges
Crowns do more than cover a damaged tooth — they also finish a dental implant and anchor a dental bridge. In those cases the crown is what makes the restoration look and function like a natural tooth.
HOW IT WORKS
The
Crown Process
Most crowns take two visits: one to prepare the tooth, one to place the finished restoration.
Evaluation & Preparation
The damaged tooth is shaped and prepared for a crown.
Impressions
Digital or physical impressions are taken to create your custom crown.
Temporary Crown
A temporary crown is placed while your permanent crown is crafted.
Final Placement
The permanent crown is securely bonded, restoring full function and appearance.

How long do dental implants last?
With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. The crown on top may need replacement after 10–15 years.
Is a crown or a filling better for my tooth?
It depends on the extent of damage. Small areas of decay are best treated with fillings, while larger areas or weakened teeth benefit from the full coverage of a crown.
What is full mouth reconstruction?
Full mouth reconstruction combines multiple restorative procedures to rebuild all or most of your teeth, restoring function, aesthetics, and oral health.
Do you offer same-day crowns?
We use advanced digital impression technology for precise crown fabrication. Depending on the case, some restorations can be completed in fewer visits.
