Dental Crowns
Restore Strength. Renew Confidence.
Natural-looking, long-lasting crowns designed to protect and perfect your smile — all with gentle, expert care.
What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a custom-made, tooth-shaped “cap” placed over a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its strength, shape, and appearance. It covers and protects the tooth while blending in naturally with your smile.
- Crafted from durable, tooth-colored porcelain
- Preserves as much of your natural tooth as possible
- Virtually invisible, natural-looking results
When Is a Crown Needed?
You may benefit from a dental crown if you have:
- A cracked, chipped, or broken tooth
- A cavity too large for a filling
- A tooth weakened by root canal therapy
- Severe discoloration or cosmetic damage
- Bite misalignment or uneven wear
Still unsure? We’ll walk you through all your options at your consultation.

Frequently asked questions
What are same-day crowns and how do they work?
Same-day crowns are custom-made dental restorations designed to cover and protect damaged or weakened teeth. Using advanced CAD/CAM technology, we can create and place your crown in just one visit. After preparing your tooth, we’ll take digital impressions, design your crown, and mill it on-site to fit perfectly before bonding it securely in place.
Are same-day crowns durable?
Yes, same-day crowns are crafted from high-quality ceramic materials that are designed to last. With proper care, these crowns can withstand daily chewing and maintain their appearance for many years. We’ll provide you with tips on how to care for your crown to ensure its longevity.
What are the benefits of choosing same-day crowns?
The main advantage is convenience. Traditional crowns require multiple visits and temporary crowns, but same-day crowns eliminate the need for that extra time and hassle. They are also custom-made to match the color and shape of your natural teeth, providing excellent durability, aesthetics, and a faster path to restoring your smile.
