Dental Crowns in San Jose

Where damage to a person’s teeth is extreme, and apparently beyond repair, we can use porcelain crowns to make the smile appear “as new”. A dental crown covers the remaining tooth structure and helps to strengthen it and prevent further breakdown. We are renowned for the quality of our work and the fantastic changes we make for people using this technology. These treatments are used for a long-lasting correction of major dental problems. 

Fitting a crown can now be done in only one visit!  Ask us about our CEREC unit, which helps us design and make crown here in the office while you wait.  When the CEREC is done milling your crown, we will fit it and bond on the same day!

Many people have unexplained pain from filled back teeth, which is usually due to hairline cracks in the chewing part of the tooth (cracked-tooth syndrome).  Placing crowns on these teeth relieves the pain and allows a return of full dental function for these teeth. In front of teeth, older fillings can both weaken the teeth and cause appearance problems due to staining or chipping. Porcelain crowns are suitable in cases where porcelain veneers are not. In teeth with root canal fillings, crowns can help to protect the remaining tooth and prevent further breakdown.  All of this will be evaluated and explained further by the dentist when you come for a check-up.  Please feel free to ask questions if you would like further clarification.
