A crown, also known as a cap, covers a tooth to restore it to its normal shape and size, thereby strengthening and improving its overall appearance.
A crown may be recommended to cover and support a tooth with a large filling. A crown can be used to attach a bridge, protect a weak tooth from breaking, or restore one that is already broken.
There are three main types of dental crowns. Each designed for different applications. Metal gold crowns are particularly suitable for posterior teeth exposed to heavy chewing forces.
Porcelain or ceramic crowns, offer excellent aesthetic results and closely match the appearance of natural teeth. They blend seamlessly in with your smile.
Finally, Porcelain fused to metal (PFM) crowns combine the strength of metal with the cosmetic appeal of porcelain. This type of crown is often recommended for load-bearing teeth that are visible when you smile.

I’m the anxious dental patient… recently had my teeth cleaned by Brittany, she was gentle informative …felt very comfortable with her…… unfortunately with the cleaning protocol of having X-rays done found out I needed to get a crown… not the royal one… the dreaded dental crown.. at this point I’m overly anxious…. Next visit with Dr Smith was absolutely amazing… so nice reassuring… process was done before you know it…. This dental group is outstanding!!
My wife and I have been going to Acierno Dental for nearly two decades and have always received the best treatment and care from professional people; including the front desk, hygienists, assistants and dentists. They use the latest dental procedures, providing a nearly-painless dental experience. Through the years I’ve personally been treated by DDS/DMD’s Acierno, Breen, Smith and DiFranco. Most recently I saw Linda DiFranco, DMD who was assisted by Carly and Josh, and who all went above and beyond to help me with a crown in urgent need of replacement. And be sure to ask about their DecisionOne Dental Plan to significantly reduce the cost of your dental work. In short, I highly recommend Acierno Dental; they’re a great team and they truly care about their patients.
