What are Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are caps that are cemented into place over an existing tooth in order to protect it from further damage and restore functionality. These ceramic restorations are durable and natural-looking, making it an excellent option for the following situations:

  • After Root CanalsRoot canals are a common dental procedure performed in order to remove extensive decay or damage inside a tooth and prevent the need for extraction. Following root canals, the natural tooth structure is often brittle and prone to breakage. By placing a dental crown over the tooth, we prevent damage and restore function.
  • With Large Fillings Large fillings can compromise the structure of the tooth. Dental crowns restore the appearance and protect the tooth.
  • With Dental Implants Dental crowns can be connected to a dental implant to replace a missing tooth or teeth.
  • To Anchor Dental Bridges When one or more consecutive teeth are missing, dental crowns can be placed on each side of the gap to anchor a dental bridge.

The Dental Crown Process

The dental crown process typically requires two visits to the dentist. During the first visit, the tooth will be prepared, and impressions are taken and then sent to a dental laboratory for fabrication. A temporary crown is placed over the tooth to protect it during the waiting period. Once the final crown is at the office, patients will return to have it cemented into place. With good oral hygiene and care, dental crowns can last a decade or even longer.
