When a tooth is cracked, worn, or heavily restored, it may not have enough healthy structure left to support another filling. A dental crown covers the entire tooth, restoring strength, stability, and natural appearance. Crowns are one of the most reliable ways to preserve teeth long-term and prevent fractures from worsening.

We use modern, high-quality materials based on your unique needs:
Porcelain and ceramic

When you might need a crown
A large cavity or failing filling
A tooth that’s cracked or fractured
After a root canal
Severe wear from grinding or acid erosion
Cosmetic enhancement for a misshapen or discolored tooth
Crowns reinforce the tooth’s foundation, protecting it from further stress and allowing you to chew confidently again.
Caring for your crown
Crowns don’t decay, but the tooth underneath still can. Brush and floss daily, use fluoride toothpaste, and keep up with routine checkups to ensure lasting results. Avoid chewing hard items like ice or pens to prevent unnecessary wear.
What to expect
Preparation – The tooth is shaped and cleaned to remove any decay or damage.
Impressions – We take digital or physical molds to ensure an accurate fit.
Temporary crown – A short-term restoration protects your tooth while your permanent crown is created.
Once complete, your tooth will look and feel completely natural.
