What are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns — also called tooth caps — are custom-shaped restorations usually made from porcelain, resin, or metal, sized, shaped, and colored to match your natural teeth perfectly. Crowns are placed over damaged teeth to stop damage from spreading and to restore the tooth's strength and appearance.

You may receive a crown to treat a weakened or decaying tooth, cover a dental implant, anchor a dental bridge, or make a cosmetic improvement to your smile. Crowns are also commonly paired with root canal therapy to restore the treated tooth. With proper care, dental crowns can last between 10 and 15 years.Dental crowns are custom-shaped caps that are shaped and colored to look just like your regular teeth.

The Benefits of Dental Crowns

The Dental Crown Procedure

Our experienced dentists have been serving Greenville, Simpsonville, and the surrounding Upstate South Carolina communities since 1983. We use modern technology and techniques to apply dental crowns gently and with precision. Here is what to expect:

• Consultation & Exam – The crown procedure begins with a comprehensive examination of your tooth and overall oral health. Your doctor will check for decay, breakage, and infection to determine whether a dental crown is the right treatment for you. We'll walk you through the full treatment plan — and only proceed when you're ready.
• Preparation, Impression, and Temporary Crown – Treatment begins with cleaning the tooth and removing any decay to ensure the crown seats on a healthy base. The tooth is then shaped so the cap can fit properly. Using advanced tools, we make an impression to craft a custom dental crown that perfectly matches your natural smile. A temporary crown is placed while your permanent one is expertly made.
• Custom Crown & Final Placement – At your final visit, the temporary crown is removed and replaced with the permanent, custom-made one. We check the fit and feel, then bond it securely in place — leaving you with a restored tooth that looks and feels completely natural.
