What Is a Dental Crown?

Essentially, a dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap. They’re designed to fit snugly over the top of a tooth, completely encapsulating its entire visible surface. In addition to strengthening and cosmetically improving the tooth, the dental crown acts as a barrier to prevent further damage or decay. Each custom-made restoration is crafted from high-quality dental ceramic for seamlessly lifelike results that are built to last for years to come. Dental crowns can be used to address issues like:

Teeth that have been weakened by extensive decay or large fillings.
Teeth that have been chipped, cracked, or fractured.
Stained, small, misshapen, or otherwise cosmetically imperfect teeth.
Teeth that have just been treated with a root canal.
A missing tooth, when paired with a dental implant.

How Are Dental Crowns Placed?

Thanks to our state-of-the-art technology, placing a dental crown is now faster, more comfortable, and more precise than ever. First, we’ll remove a very thin layer of enamel to make room for your new restoration. Then, instead of using uncomfortable dental putty, we’ll take precise digital impressions of your teeth. This detailed information is sent to our CAD/CAM technology, where your Springfield dentist Dr. Aliana Henkin can design your unique dental crown in just a few minutes.

Once the final design is finished, it will be sent to our in-house milling machine and crafted out of a single block of high-quality dental ceramic. In about an hour, your brand-new custom dental crown will be finished and ready to be cemented in place. After we make sure your bite feels comfortable, you’ll be ready to go out and enjoy your newly restored smile all within a single day!
