Dental Crowns  

When a tooth is damaged or weakened, a dental crown can restore its strength, appearance, and function. At East Fork Family Dentistry, we provide custom crowns that are crafted to match the shape and color of your natural teeth, so your restored tooth looks and feels just like the real thing.

What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a cap that covers the entire visible portion of a tooth, protecting it and enhancing its appearance. It’s used to reinforce a tooth that has been cracked, severely decayed, worn down, or treated with a root canal. Crowns can also be used to improve the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth.

Made from durable, tooth-colored materials like porcelain or ceramic, our crowns offer both protection and aesthetic appeal.

Signs You Might Need a Crown

You may need a crown if you’re experiencing any of the following:

  • A large cavity that can’t be filled with composite material
  • A cracked, broken, or worn-down tooth
  • Tooth pain when chewing or sensitivity to temperature
  • A tooth that recently underwent a root canal
  • Cosmetic concerns like discoloration or shape irregularities

Our Custom Crown Process

At East Fork Family Dentistry, we ensure your crown fits perfectly and blends seamlessly with your smile. We begin with a comprehensive exam and digital impressions. Your custom crown is then created in a lab to your exact specifications.

While you wait for your permanent crown, we’ll provide a temporary one to protect your tooth. Once ready, your crown is securely bonded in place for a long-lasting restoration.
