What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a custom-fitted cap placed over a damaged tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. It provides full coverage and protection, preventing further deterioration while ensuring a natural-looking restoration.

Crowns can be made from various materials, including:

• Porcelain or Ceramic – Offers a natural appearance and is ideal for front teeth.
• Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) – Combines durability with a natural look.
• Zirconia – Known for exceptional strength and aesthetics.
• Gold or Metal Alloys – Highly durable and resistant to wear, often used for back teeth.

Dr. Killingsworth will recommend the best material based on your specific needs and preferences.

When Do You Need a Dental Crown?

A dental crown may be the best option if you have:

• A tooth weakened by decay or a large filling
• A cracked or broken tooth that needs structural support
• A tooth that has undergone root canal therapy
• A severely worn-down tooth due to grinding or clenching
• A misshapen or discolored tooth that needs cosmetic enhancement
• A dental implant that requires a crown for the final restoration

If you are experiencing pain, discomfort, or sensitivity in a damaged tooth, a custom dental crown can restore your smile’s strength and function.

The Dental Crown Procedure

Getting a dental crown at Killingsworth Family Dentistry involves a simple, two-step process:

1. Initial Consultation & Tooth Preparation

• A comprehensive exam, including digital X-rays, is performed.
• The affected tooth is reshaped to accommodate the crown.
• Impressions are taken to create a custom-fitted crown.
• A temporary crown is placed while your permanent crown is being crafted.

2. Final Crown Placement

• Once your custom crown is ready, we ensure a perfect fit and color match.
• The crown is permanently bonded to the tooth, restoring function and aesthetics.
• Final adjustments are made to ensure comfort and proper bite alignment.

After placement, your dental crown will look and function like a natural tooth.
