What is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped shell made of porcelain or zirconia. Crowns are a restorative option used in a variety of treatments at our Los Algodones dental practice to address issues such as:
Repair a Damaged Tooth
A dental crown can be used to repair a damaged or worn tooth. It is also used to provide strength to a weak tooth. This allows your tooth to look and function just as your natural tooth would to restore your oral function.
Protect a Tooth After a Root Canal
Root canal therapy clears infection from a tooth, but requires making a small opening in the tooth structure. A crown can be used to cap the tooth following treatment to give the tooth strength and protection.
Replace a Missing Tooth
For those missing a single tooth, a dental crown can be paired with a dental implant to fill in the gap. These implants act as artificial tooth roots to provide the jaw with the stimulation it needs to remain healthy.

A dental implant is surgically placed into the jaw. Next, an abutment is attached. This allows the dental crown to be secured to the implant.
Providing Advanced Care With State-of-the-Art Technology
At Castle Dental, we use advanced techniques and technology to provide the highest level of care possible. Our advanced technology includes:
Intraoral Cameras
Intraoral cameras allow our dental team to get digital impressions so we can craft a beautiful crown that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. This eliminates the need for messy putty impressions that many patients find uncomfortable.
CAD/CAM
Using digital impressions, we are able to fabricate your dental crowns using CAD/CAM. Our on-site lab uses these impressions to create custom crowns in as few as one to two days. We can craft both porcelain crowns and zirconia crowns to meet your needs.

"If I could give the staff at Castle Dental 100 stars I would. The doctors were very knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make my husband feel like he was in great hands with Castle Dental. Additionally, the cost of the dental treatment was affordable and most importantly the dental care was A+! You can’t go wrong with Castle Dental!!!" Denise Smith
Concerned About the Cost of Your Dental Crown?
We understand that dental work can be expensive, especially in the United States where the cost of care continues to rise. We strive to provide affordable treatment. Our zirconia crowns start at $400-$500. However, if you need additional work like dental implants or a root canal, your treatment cost will increase.
Dental Crown Timeline
Every patient has unique needs, so this timeline may vary. If you need preparatory work such as a root canal or implant placement, this will also change your treatment timeline.

See How a Dental Crown is Placed
The dentist will remove some enamel from the tooth and reshape the structure so that the dental crown will blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Our Los Algodones dental clinic fabricates and mills beautiful dental crowns in-house in about two to three days.
How Long Does a Crown Last?
Crowns are made of durable porcelain or zirconia. With proper care and maintenance, your dental crown can last for years. Here are a few things to remember to protect your dental crown for years to come:
Be Mindful of Hard or Sticky Foods
When possible, chew foods like hard, raw vegetables or sticky caramel with a tooth that does not have a crown.
Don't Use Your Teeth as a Tool
Do not use your teeth to open packages or bite your nails. This can damage your natural teeth as well as your dental crown.
Are There Alternatives to Crowns?
For minor damage and wear to a front tooth, a veneer is a great alternative. A veneer is a thin porcelain shell that fits over the front surface of a tooth. However, if you had a root canal or a severely damaged tooth, a veneer will not adequately protect the tooth structure.
