Our Difference
What to Expect From Dental Crowns
Consultation and Examination
During your first visit, Dr. Martin carefully examines your tooth to determine if a dental crown is the best option for your dental needs. Using advanced tools like digital X-rays, you’ll receive a clear picture of what’s happening with your oral health. Dr. Martin takes the time to explain every step and answer your questions, helping you feel confident about moving forward.
Preparing Your Tooth
Once you’re ready to proceed, the affected tooth is gently prepared to make space for your new crown. Using our high-tech intraoral scanners, we take accurate impressions to create a crown that fits perfectly. A temporary crown will be placed to protect your tooth while your final restoration is crafted at a dental lab.
Placing Your Crown
At your final appointment, Dr. Martin will carefully place your custom crown, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. We’ll make any necessary adjustments to guarantee that your bite feels natural and your crown blends perfectly with your other teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dental crowns are excellent solutions for teeth with extensive damage or decay that can't be adequately restored with a filling. They're ideal for teeth that are cracked, broken, or severely worn down. After root canal therapy, crowns provide essential protection by covering the treated tooth down to the gumline.Beyond addressing damage, crowns can also improve the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth, offering an alternative to veneers for certain cosmetic concerns. They're also used to complete dental implant restorations, creating a functional and natural-looking replacement tooth.
You might benefit from a crown if you have persistent tooth pain, visible damage, sensitivity to temperature, or difficulty chewing. Your dentist might recommend a crown if you have a large filling that's failing, a cracked tooth that needs protection, or following root canal treatment. A professional evaluation is the best way to determine if a crown is the right solution for your specific dental situation.
With proper placement and care, dental crowns typically last 10-15 years, though many last even longer. Regular brushing, flossing, and professional dental cleanings help extend your crown's lifespan. Avoiding habits like chewing ice or using your teeth as tools also helps prevent damage to your crown. Your dentist can provide personalized advice on maximizing the longevity of your restoration.
Most dental insurance plans provide some coverage for crowns when they're deemed medically necessary for restorative purposes. Crowns placed primarily for cosmetic reasons generally receive limited or no coverage. Our team can help verify your specific benefits and discuss payment options if you have limited or no insurance coverage.
