What is a dental crown?
A crown is a cap that covers the whole visible part of a tooth. It holds a damaged tooth together, lets you chew normally again, and restores the tooth’s shape and color.
Crowns are often needed after a root canal, when a filling is too large for the tooth to support, or when a tooth is cracked. They are also the visible tooth on top of a dental implant.
We use tooth-colored materials such as porcelain and zirconia, and match the shade to your neighboring teeth.

Getting a crown, step by step
Exam & X-ray
We confirm the tooth can be saved and explain your options and cost.
Preparation
The tooth is numbed and shaped, impressions are taken, and a temporary crown is placed.
Final crown
Your permanent crown is fitted, your bite is checked, and it is cemented in place.
Dental crown cost
The price depends on the tooth and the material. Many PPO plans cover part of a crown when it is needed for the health of the tooth. We check your benefits and give you the cost in writing before treatment.

FAQ
Dental crown questions
Does getting a crown hurt?
No. The tooth is numbed while it is prepared. It can feel a little tender for a few days afterward.
How long does a crown last?
With good brushing, flossing and checkups, a crown can last many years. Grinding your teeth shortens its life — a night guard helps.
Crown or filling?
Small cavities get fillings. When too much of the tooth is missing or cracked, a crown is stronger and protects it from breaking.
Do you take insurance or Medicaid?
Yes. We accept most PPO dental plans and Medicaid, plus CareCredit. Call (305) 871-9111 with your plan name and we will check what is covered before your visit.
