Dental Crowns
A dental crown is a type of dental restoration that completely covers or “caps” a damaged tooth or implant. It is a tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over a tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Dental crowns are commonly used to:
- Protect a weak or damaged tooth from further damage or decay
- Restore a broken or severely worn-down tooth
- Cover a dental implant
- Improve the appearance of a misshapen or discolored tooth
- Hold a dental bridge in place
- Cover a tooth that has undergone a root canal treatment.
Dental crowns can be made from a variety of materials, including metal alloys, porcelain fused to metal, all-ceramic or all-porcelain, zirconia, and composite resin. Each material has its own advantages and disadvantages in terms of durability, esthetics, and cost. Your dentist will help you choose the type of crown that is best for your individual situation.

Frequently Asked Questions
A dental crown is a type of dental restoration that is used to cover a damaged or decayed tooth. It is a tooth-shaped cap that is placed over the tooth to restore its shape, size, and strength.
You may need a dental crown if you have a tooth that is damaged, decayed, or weakened due to injury, decay, or other factors. A crown can help protect the tooth and prevent further damage.
The process of placing a dental crown typically involves two appointments. During the first appointment, your dentist will prepare the tooth by removing any decay or damage and shaping it to fit the crown. An impression of the tooth is then taken and sent to a dental lab to create the crown. At the second appointment, the crown is placed over the tooth and bonded into place.
The lifespan of a dental crown can vary depending on several factors, including the material used and how well it is cared for. On average, dental crowns can last between 5 and 15 years.
