Dental Crownsin Fullerton, CA
Dental crowns are a trusted and long-lasting solution for restoring damaged or weakened teeth. At Smile With Style in Fullerton, CA, Dr. Kirk Larson and Dr. Timothy Hedrick customize each dental crown treatment using high-quality, biocompatible materials that support both form and function.
Whether your tooth is cracked, worn down, or has undergone a root canal, a crown acts like a protective cap, bringing strength, beauty, and durability back to your smile. Combining advanced technology like our 3D iTero digital scanner with a conservative, minimally invasive philosophy, we ensure your crown looks and feels just like your natural tooth while preserving as much of your healthy structure as possible.
Why Would I Need A Dental Crown?
Dental crowns are ideal for repairing teeth that have extensive decay, a large filling, old crown, or that have been treated with root canal therapy. Crowns are also the best choice for repairing teeth that have been cracked, chipped, or broken by extensive wear and tear or dental trauma. They are sometimes also used for cosmetic purposes if other treatments like veneers are not appropriate.
From cracked teeth to cosmetic enhancements, crowns help restore confidence in your smile while supporting better oral function. And with our focus on comfort-based care at Smile With Style, including massage chairs and warmed anesthetic techniques, your crown procedure is designed to be as stress-free as possible. Instead of dreading treatment, you can relax knowing you’re in kind, expert hands.

The Dental Crowns Treatment Process
The dental crown process involves restoring a damaged or weakened tooth with a custom-made, natural-looking cap. The dentist begins by gently reshaping the tooth and taking precise digital impressions to ensure a perfect fit. A temporary crown protects the tooth while the permanent one is crafted. Once ready, the final crown is securely bonded in place, restoring strength, function, and a beautiful, natural appearance to your smile.

FAQs
Find answers to some common questions about Dental Crowns.
How long do dental crowns last?
Dental crowns typically last between 5 to 15 years, depending on the amount of wear and tear they are exposed to, your oral hygiene practices, and personal habits such as teeth grinding or biting fingernails. Good oral hygiene practices and regular dental check-ups can help extend the lifespan of your crown.
What materials are dental crowns made from?
Dental crowns can be made from several materials, including:
- Metal: Strong and durable, often used for out-of-sight molars.
- Porcelain-fused-to-metal: Provides a natural tooth color but can show metal if gums recede.
- All-ceramic or all-porcelain: Offers the best natural color match and is suitable for people with metal allergies.
- Resin: Less expensive but wears down over time and is more prone to fractures.
- Zirconia: Highly durable and aesthetically pleasing, often used for both front and back teeth.
