Crowns are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, providing both protection and an aesthetic boost.

Zirconia crowns are prized for their strength and durability, ideal for molars and other teeth subjected to significant chewing forces. Plus, their biocompatibility means they’re gentle on surrounding gum tissue, reducing irritation.
These crowns combine the durability of metal with the cosmetic appeal of porcelain, offering a reliable and attractive restoration. They strike a good balance for patients seeking strength and a natural appearance in one crown.

Our streamlined process ensures your comfort and the best possible outcome.
A comprehensive dental evaluation, including X-rays, determines if a crown is the best solution for your tooth. In some cases, alternatives like dental bridges or inlays or onlays may also be considered.
The tooth is shaped to accommodate the crown, and if necessary, a buildup material is applied to support the structure.
Precise impressions and color matching enable the creation of a crown that fits perfectly and looks natural.
A temporary crown protects your tooth while your permanent crown is fabricated.
Your permanent crown is securely bonded and adjusted to ensure optimal comfort and function.
With proper care, dental crowns can last 10 to 15 years or longer. Maintaining good oral hygiene and regular dental visits is essential to maximize the lifespan of your restoration.
