When a tooth is damaged, cracked, or weakened, a dental crown can restore its strength, function, and appearance. Our Palm Bay dental crowns are custom-made to fit comfortably and blend naturally with your surrounding teeth, giving you long-lasting protection and a confident smile.
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that completely covers and protects a damaged or compromised tooth. Crowns are used when a filling isn’t enough to restore the tooth’s structure or when added strength is needed after root canal therapy or injury.
Crowns can be made from various materials, but porcelain or ceramic crowns are the most popular choice for their durability and natural look.
You may benefit from a dental crown if you have:
A cracked or fractured tooth
A large cavity that can’t be filled
A worn-down or weakened tooth
A tooth that has undergone root canal therapy
A misshapen or discolored tooth
A dental implant that needs a restoration
Crowns not only restore function but also protect the underlying tooth from further damage.
Evaluation and Preparation – We assess the tooth and prepare it by removing any damaged areas.
Impression and Temporary Crown – A custom mold is taken, and a temporary crown is placed.
Custom Fabrication – Your permanent crown is crafted to match your tooth size, shape, and color.
Placement and Adjustment – Once ready, the crown is bonded into place and adjusted for a perfect bite.
This process typically takes two visits and results in a strong, lifelike restoration.
Dental crowns are one of the most versatile and reliable restorations in dentistry.
Benefits include:
Restores chewing and speaking ability
Protects a damaged or fragile tooth
Looks and feels like a natural tooth
Long-lasting with proper care
Can improve the appearance of stained or misshapen teeth
With good hygiene and regular dental visits, crowns can last 10–15 years or longer.
