What are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns, also known as caps, are custom-made tooth-shaped restorations that encase the visible portion of a damaged tooth. Crafted from various durable materials, including porcelain, ceramic, or metal alloys, crowns are designed to match the color, shape, and size of your teeth.
At Dublin Corners Dental, we believe that a beautiful smile is a reflection of excellent oral health. If you have damaged, weakened, or cosmetically imperfect teeth, our high-quality dental crowns offer a versatile and durable solution to restore both the aesthetics and functionality of your smile. With our meticulous craftsmanship and advanced materials, we are committed to delivering exceptional dental care and helping you achieve a radiant and confident smile.
When are Dental Crowns Needed?
Dental crowns are recommended for a variety of dental issues, including:
- Tooth Decay: Crowns restore and strengthen teeth with extensive cavities that cannot be adequately repaired with fillings.
- Fractured or Cracked Teeth: Cracked or broken teeth can be protected and strengthened with crowns, preventing further damage.
- Root Canal Treated Teeth: Teeth that have undergone root canal treatment may require crowns to protect and preserve their structure.
- Cosmetic Enhancement: Crowns can be used to improve the appearance of misshapen, discolored, or severely stained teeth.
- Supporting Dental Bridges: Crowns act as anchors for dental bridges, filling the gaps left by missing teeth.
The Dental Crown Process:
Our skilled dental team ensures a smooth and comfortable dental crown experience:
- Initial Consultation: During your first visit, we examine your teeth and discuss your concerns to determine if dental crowns are the appropriate solution for you.
- Tooth Preparation: To accommodate the crown, a small amount of the tooth’s outer structure is gently removed. In some cases, build-up material may be used to create a more secure foundation.
- Digital Scanning: Precise scans of your teeth are taken to create custom crowns that fit perfectly with your bite and align flawlessly with your smile.
- Temporary Crowns: While your permanent crowns are being fabricated, we place temporary crowns to protect your prepared teeth.
- Final Placement: Once your custom crowns are ready, we ensure their ideal fit, aesthetics, and functionality before permanently cementing them onto your prepared teeth.
Benefits of Dental Crowns:
- Restored Dental Function: Crowns strengthen weakened teeth, allowing you to chew, bite, and speak with confidence.
- Enhanced Smile Aesthetics: Dental crowns improve the appearance of damaged or discolored teeth, enhancing your overall smile.
- Durable and Long-lasting: Crafted from high-quality materials, crowns are designed to withstand the daily demands of your mouth, providing long-term benefits.
- Preservation of Tooth Structure: Crowns protect and preserve the remaining healthy tooth structure, preventing the need for more extensive dental treatments.

“I went to the dentist once when I was a kid and not again until my mid 20s. I had a good amount of work to be done and a lot of cavities. The people at this office have blown away and far exceeded any expectations I had when I first started coming here. They are seriously the nicest people I’ve met, they are incredible at what they do, and they were even really kind and accommodating with my limited dental benefits… I moved away fairly far and I still drive all the way here because I refuse to change dentists. I cannot recommend Dublin Corners Dental enough. Seriously, you won’t be disappointed!!”
