What Are Dental Crowns?
A crown is a cap placed over a broken or damaged tooth to restore its original shape, strength, and appearance. It is fitted over the entire visible surface of the tooth and cemented in place, providing a permanent solution to most dental issues. Whether you need to repair a cracked or fractured tooth or restore it to its original state, a dental crown may be an excellent and sensible option.
When Would You Need a Dental Crown?
Your Mountain West Family Dental doctor would prescribe a dental crown if:
- You have a cracked tooth due to decay or multiple
- You have a chipped, cracked, or broken tooth that requires strengthening.
- A tooth that is deformed or discolored impacts your smile's shape
- A tooth that has previously undergone a root canal and now requires stabilization.
- A missing tooth that needs replacement with a dental implant or bridge.
A dentist will assess your teeth and determine if a crown is the best solution for you after a professional dental examination.
Following are the types of dental crowns:
There are various types of dental crowns, and each has its advantages:
Temporary Crowns
They are only temporary while your permanent crown is being made. Temporary crowns serve as a temporary covering until your permanent crown is in place.
Stainless Steel Crowns
Stainless steel crowns are a cost-effective solution for protecting children's primary teeth from decay or damage until they naturally fall out.
Metal Crowns (Gold or Silver Alloys)
They are strong and long-lasting crowns best suited for back teeth that require support for heavy chewing forces.
Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) Crowns
They are as hard as metal and as natural in appearance as porcelain, making them the best solution for both front and back teeth. In the long run, however, the metal beneath will be barely visible at the gum level.
All-porcelain or All-Ceramic Crowns
Ideal for patients seeking a natural appearance, these crowns closely resemble natural teeth in terms of translucency. They are suitable for front teeth and patients with metal sensitivities.
We can help you select the most suitable crown material based on your specific requirements, preferences, and budget.
The Dental Crown Procedure
A dental crown usually takes two visits:
First Visit: Preparation & Impression
- The tooth to be crowned is shaped to allow space for the crown.
- Your tooth is reshaped to fit a specially made crown.
- A temporary crown is cemented over your tooth while your crown is being made.
Second Visit: Crowning the Tooth
- The temporary crown is removed.
- Your new crown is examined for fit, shape, and color.
- The crown is cemented onto your tooth for comfort and a natural look.

Caring for Your Dental Crown
To keep your dental crown in the best possible condition for as long as possible, do the following simple care routines:
- Brush and floss properly for good oral health.
- Avoid biting hard objects, such as ice or candy, to prevent cracking.
- Regular visits to your dentist will help keep your crown in top condition.
- If you tend to grind your teeth, use a nightguard to prevent wearing down the crown naturally.
