When a tooth is damaged, worn down, or structurally weak, a custom dental crown can restore its strength, shape, and appearance. At Dat Complete Dentistry, we design crowns that not only protect and reinforce your tooth but also blend naturally with your smile. Dr. Dat takes a precision-based approach, using durable materials and digital technology to ensure each crown fits comfortably and looks just right.
What Are Dental Crowns?
A dental crown is a protective cap that fits over the entire visible part of a tooth. It restores the tooth’s shape and function while preventing further damage. Dental crowns are commonly used to:
- Repair teeth with large fillings or advanced decay
- Reinforce cracked or worn teeth
- Protect a tooth after root canal therapy
- Complete a dental implant
- Improve the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth
At Dat Complete Dentistry, we offer crowns made from a variety of materials, including porcelain, zirconia, ceramic, and BruxZir®, depending on your needs and aesthetic goals.
Do I Need a Dental Crown?
Wondering if a dental crown restoration is right for you? You may benefit from a dental crown if you:
- Feel discomfort when chewing
- Notice a visible crack or worn surface
- Have recently had a root canal
- Are replacing a missing tooth with a dental implant
- Want to improve the shape or color of a tooth
Dr. Dat will examine your tooth, discuss your restorative treatment options, and help you determine if a crown is the right solution for your needs.
The Dental Crown Process
Our dental team in Hatboro offers both same-day crowns using CEREC technology and traditional lab-fabricated crowns for more complex cases. For lab-made crowns, we begin by preparing the tooth and taking digital scans for a precise fit. A temporary crown will be placed to protect your tooth while the final restoration is crafted by a trusted dental lab.
When your permanent crown is ready, you’ll return for a short second visit to have it bonded securely in place. The result is a strong, natural-looking restoration that fits your bite and supports long-term oral health.
