Restorative dentistry
A crown protects and rebuilds a tooth that has been weakened by a fracture, decay, a large filling, or root canal treatment. The team will examine the tooth, explain the options, and plan a restoration that supports comfortable everyday chewing.
A clear path forward
The visit starts with an exam and any imaging needed to understand the tooth, root, and surrounding bone.
You will see what the team found and hear the treatment choices before deciding how to proceed.
The tooth is prepared and restored with a crown designed for strength, fit, and a natural appearance.
Common questions
A crown restores the visible part of a damaged tooth. An implant replaces a missing tooth root and can support a crown. The exam determines whether your existing tooth can be restored or whether replacement should be considered.
The estimate depends on the tooth, the restoration, any additional treatment, and your insurance benefits. Ask the front desk about the exam cost and request a treatment estimate after the dentist evaluates the tooth.
A crown may be recommended when a tooth is cracked, badly worn, heavily filled, or too damaged for a filling alone. An exam is the only way to know which treatment fits the tooth.
Often, yes. Whether the tooth can be restored depends on how much healthy structure remains and the condition of the root and surrounding bone.
