Dental Crowns

Restore strength, function, and your smile.
A dental crown is a custom-made “cap” that fits over a damaged or weakened tooth, helping restore its strength, function, and appearance. Crowns are one of the most durable and long-lasting restorations we offer in dentistry. Crowns are often recommended when a tooth has a large filling, significant decay, a crack or fracture, or has had a root canal. A crown helps protect the tooth from further damage while restoring its shape, strength, and appearance.

At York Dental Arts, we use crowns to help save and strengthen teeth whenever possible. Your crown is carefully designed to look and feel natural, so you can get back to smiling, eating, and enjoying your favorite foods with confidence.

Step 1: We carefully prepare the tooth and take a detailed digital scan to capture every tiny detail.

Step 2: Before you leave, we place a temporary crown to protect your tooth and keep you comfortable while your permanent crown is being made.

Step 3: Your digital scan is sent to our lab, where technicians custom-craft your crown to match the shape, fit, and color of your natural teeth.

Step 4: Over the next couple of weeks, your crown is carefully designed, milled, layered, polished, and inspected to ensure it’s just right.

Step 5: About two weeks later, you’ll return to our office. We’ll remove the temporary crown, check the fit and your bite, and permanently cement your beautiful new crown into place. 

The end result? A strong, natural-looking restoration that’s made just for you. Every crown is custom-crafted because every smile is unique—and we think that’s worth the wait!
