Dental Crowns Q & A

What are dental crowns?

Dental crowns are custom-made covers that encase damaged or weakened teeth. These crowns are crafted from durable materials like porcelain, ceramic, or metal alloys and restore the tooth's shape, size, and strength, ensuring a natural and aesthetically pleasing look. 

Dental crowns blend seamlessly with your existing teeth, providing a natural-looking look and long-lasting solution.

Why would I need a dental crown?

Dental crowns are a versatile solution for many dental problems. You might need a dental crown if:

  • You have a severely decayed tooth that cannot be restored with a filling
  • Your tooth has undergone a root canal treatment and needs reinforcement
  • You have a cracked or fractured tooth that requires protection and support
  • Your tooth is discolored or misshapen, and you desire an improved appearance
  • You want to anchor a dental bridge securely in place
  • You have a dental implant that needs a realistic-looking replacement tooth

If something doesn’t look or feel right, talk to the team at Park Dental NYC. They listen carefully to your concerns and never rush your appointments.

What is the dental crown process?

Park Dental NYC undertakes your dental crown procedure with your comfort and convenience in mind. Here's what you can expect:


Consultation and examination

During your initial visit, the Park Dental NYC team will assess your oral health, discuss your concerns, and determine if a dental crown is the right solution.


Tooth preparation

To prepare your tooth for a crown, the skilled team will remove a small amount of enamel to create space for the crown. This ensures a proper fit and natural appearance.


Impression and crown placement

The team will take impressions of your prepared tooth, which will be used to create your custom crown. While the lab is crafting your permanent crown, you will receive a temporary crown to protect your tooth.


Final placement

Once your custom crown is ready, you'll return to the office for the final placement. The team will ensure the crown fits perfectly, matches your natural teeth, and feels comfortable before securely bonding it.

The team at Park Dental NYC is committed to providing top-notch dental crowns that enhance your smile and oral health. Contact the office today by phone or online to schedule a consultation and take the first step toward restoring your confident smile.
