Dental Crowns

Are Dental Crowns right for You?

If you have experienced tooth decay, a chipped, cracked or broken tooth, dental crowns may be the best solution to your condition.  At East Lakewood Dental, your dental health and well being are our primary concern.  Our experienced doctors and staff are experts at fitting our patients properly for their new crowns.  Based on impressions that our staff will make, your new crowns will seamlessly mirror the size and shape of the patient’s original tooth or teeth.

Essentially, a crown is a cap that is molded and shaped to resemble a natural tooth.  It is then placed over the damaged tooth to restore natural cosmetic appearance and shape.  Crowns can be made from a variety of materials such as metals like gold or stainless steel, ceramics, or porcelain fused to metal.  Metal crowns are extremely durable, and porcelain fused metal crowns offer better durability than an entirely porcelain crown.  Once the replacement crown has been produced, it is then fused to the damaged tooth.  With proper care they can last a lifetime.

 

What are the Benefits of Dental Crowns?

  • A crown will restore your smile to its original shape, size, and color. Porcelain or ceramic crowns are virtually undetectable and can restore lost confidence for patients that have been self-conscious about the appearance of their smile.
  • Properly installed and with proper care, a crown can last a lifetime making them a very cost-effective solution.
  • Unlike a denture, crowns will not move or shift as they are held seamlessly in place by a dental bridge or in the case of a single tooth, cement. They will not irritate the patients gums and are completely pain free
  • With crowns, patients can expect a return to normal eating habits and eating foods they would have not eaten with a damaged tooth. Having the ability to eat, bite and enjoy your favorite foods without the possibility of having a device shift in the patient’s mouth, cannot be overrated.
  • Porcelain crowns are very stain resistant, helping the patient retain a beautiful smile.

We provide the best quality dental crowns in a pleasant, caring and relaxed environment.
