Dental crown
A dental crown is a prosthesis that covers and protects a damaged or weakened tooth, closely matching the shape and color of your natural tooth.
A dental crown may behelpfulfor several reasons
- It provides added protection for a root-canal-treated or weakened tooth.
- It restores teeth with large cavities or extensive fillings.
- It can be placed on a dental implant or serve as an abutment for a bridge.
- It enhances damaged, stained, or misaligned teeth for a brighter smile.
At Aura, we mainly create all-ceramic crowns, which offer excellent esthetics; zirconia provides outstanding strength.
Here are thestepsof placing a dental crown
-
Diagnosis
Your dentist performs a detailed examination of the tooth to confirm that a crown is needed and to choose between ceramic, metal, or porcelain-fused-to-metal.
-
Preparation
The tooth is prepared, then an impression is taken to create a custom-made crown. A temporary crown is placed in the meantime.
-
Final placement
At the second appointment, the crown is adjusted for comfort and esthetics before being securely bonded to the tooth.
A crownbuilt to last
A crown is designed to last a long time—10 to 20 years or more. How long it lasts depends largely on your oral hygiene: brushing, flossing, and regular dental checkups are essential.

Frequently askedquestions
Have a question?
We’re happy to answer any questions you may have. Feel free to write to us or give us a call.
Can a dental crown be whitened?
No, unlike natural teeth, crowns don’t respond to whitening treatments.
Can I replace an old crown with a new one?
Yes, a crown can be replaced if it is damaged or if you’d like to improve the look of your smile.
Which material should I choose for my crown?
Ceramic offers the best esthetics, metal is a lower-cost option suited to molars, and porcelain-fused-to-metal combines strength and esthetics, with a risk of a gray line showing if the gums recede.
How long does a dental crown last?
A crown typically lasts 10 to 20 years or more, depending on the quality of your oral hygiene and how regularly you have checkups.
