What is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown, also called a cap, can return structure, strength, and function to a tooth with extensive decay or damage. Designed to fit snugly and function as a healthy tooth, a crown will protect your tooth from further damage and preserve the jaw's correct natural alignment. It’s also worth mentioning that the final results will be as functional as they are lifelike thanks to the high-quality materials we use, including zirconia, porcelain, and porcelain-fused-to-metal.
The Dental Crown Process

Typically, we can design, fit, and place your crowns in just a couple of short appointments. After we’ve determined that a dental crown is the best treatment for you, we will address any decay or damage before “prepping” your tooth. This involves removing a portion of the enamel so that the dental crown fits well and blends in with your surrounding teeth.
Next, we will take impressions of your tooth, secure a temporary crown in place, and schedule your final appointment. At this time, we will replace the temporary crown with your final one. Once this step is complete, you can care for it as you do your natural teeth. Conscientious brushing twice a day and daily flossing will protect the base of your crown from bacterial growth. Be sure to see us at least two times each year for professional teeth cleanings and a preventive dental exam, too.
The Benefits of Getting a Dental Crown

There are several benefits of dental crowns, starting with the fact that we use only the best materials to make them. Of course, there are other noteworthy perks you should consider, including:
- Our precise color-matching system allows us to find the right shade of porcelain to blend with your natural tooth color.
- Porcelain crowns are also extremely durable, restoring the strength of your bite.
- The results can last for well over a decade with proper care.

Understanding the Cost of Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are often the best way to restore the structure of compromised teeth, but wanting to know how much these devices cost before committing to them is perfectly reasonable. The cost of your crown will depend on a variety of factors, and it will probably receive some insurance coverage if it is deemed medically necessary. Here’s a brief guide to how dental crowns are priced at North Dallas Cosmetic Dentistry.
Factors That Affect the Cost of Dental Crowns

A few factors that can influence the cost of your dental crown include:
- The severity of the damage and the procedures required to address it. For example, if your crown is placed upon a dental implant, the cost of placing the titanium post and the abutment piece will be represented on your bill.
- The type of material used for your restoration. Crowns can be made from amalgam, gold, porcelain, and other elements.
- The method of your crown’s manufacture. Same-day crowns can be more expensive than traditional ones.
It’s important to remember that the cheapest solution will not always be the ideal option. A high-quality crown can last for many years while protecting your tooth from infection and injury.
Does Dental Insurance Cover Dental Crowns?

Since dental crowns are considered a major restorative procedure, they are typically covered by about 50% to 80% if they are deemed medically necessary. However, it’s important to confirm what your policy will pay for before you commit to the treatment. The team at North Dallas Cosmetic Dentistry will be more than happy to help you navigate your insurance plan and maximize your benefits during your consultation.
