Whether you need to protect a cracked tooth, cover a large filling, or complete a root canal treatment, our high-quality dental crowns are designed for durability and a natural look.

The Dental Crown Process at Espire Dental

Getting a dental crown is a straightforward, painless procedure that typically requires two visits to our Highlands Ranch office. Here’s what you can expect during the process:

Initial Consultation and Preparation: During your first visit, we’ll assess the tooth and take digital impressions. The tooth is then reshaped to make room for the crown, and a temporary crown is placed while your custom crown is being created.
Creating Your Custom Crown: Your crown is custom-made in a dental lab, using impressions of your tooth to ensure a perfect fit. We work with high-quality materials to create a durable crown that matches the color and appearance of your surrounding teeth.
Final Placement: On your second visit, we’ll remove the temporary crown and bond your permanent crown securely in place. Once adjusted for a comfortable bite, your new crown will function like a natural tooth, restoring both the look and strength of your smile.

How long does a dental crown last?

With proper care, a dental crown can last between 10 to 15 years or even longer. Good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups at Espire Dental Highlands Ranch will help extend the life of your crown.

Is getting a dental crown painful?

No, the procedure is painless. We use local anesthesia to ensure you’re comfortable throughout, and any sensitivity you experience afterward is typically temporary.

What is the best material for a dental crown?

The best material depends on the location of the tooth and your needs. Porcelain and ceramic crowns are popular for front teeth because they look natural, while metal crowns are stronger and often used for molars.

How do I care for my dental crown?

Caring for your crown is just like caring for your natural teeth—brush twice a day, floss daily, and visit us regularly for cleanings and exams. Avoid biting down on hard objects, like ice or fingernails, to prevent damage.

Can a dental crown be repaired if it breaks?

In some cases, a chipped or cracked crown can be repaired. However, if the damage is significant, the crown may need to be replaced. We’ll assess the situation and recommend the best course of action.

How much does a dental crown cost?

Costs vary depending on the material and complexity of the case. During your consultation, we’ll provide a detailed cost estimate and discuss financing or insurance options.
