Crowns, or dental caps, are tooth-shaped covers placed over a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its shape, strength, and function. Crowns can be made from various materials, including porcelain, ceramic, and metal. Each material has its benefits and drawbacks, and our team will work with you to determine the best option for your needs.

Procedure of Crowns

The process of getting a crown typically requires two appointments. During your first appointment, our team will prepare your tooth by removing any damaged or decayed areas and shaping it to fit the crown. We will then take impressions of your tooth and send them to a dental lab, where your crown will be custom-made to fit your tooth precisely.

While your permanent crown is being fabricated, we will place a temporary crown to protect your tooth. Once your permanent crown is ready, we will remove the temporary crown and cement the permanent crown in place using a strong adhesive.

Our team will ensure that your crown fits comfortably and matches the shade of your natural teeth so that you can enjoy a beautiful, seamless smile.
