Dental crowns are an excellent solution for restoring both the function and appearance of damaged or weakened teeth. Whether caused by decay, injury, or wear, damaged teeth can affect your smile and self-confidence. Dental crowns provide a reliable way to address various cosmetic and structural dental concerns.
A dental crown is a custom-made, tooth-shaped cap designed to cover and protect a compromised tooth. It fits securely over the tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. To ensure a perfect fit, some enamel may need to be carefully removed during preparation.
Dental crowns, commonly referred to as caps, are restorative dental devices designed to cover a tooth that is damaged/decayed. They restore the appearance of the tooth as well as its functionality. Crowns can be made from various materials, including porcelain, ceramic, metal alloys, and composite resin. At Molar Dental, we offer a range of crown options to suit your specific needs and preferences.

Dental crowns offer numerous benefits, making them a popular choice for patients needing tooth restoration. Some of the key benefits include:
Getting a dental crown typically involves two visits to our Katy, TX office.
Here’s what you can expect during the process:
During your first visit, our dentist will examine your tooth and take X-rays to assess the extent of the damage. If a crown is deemed necessary, we will discuss the different material options and recommend the best one for your specific case.
To prepare your tooth for a crown, our dentist will remove any decay and shape the tooth to ensure a proper fit for the crown. This may involve dental filling down the tooth or building it up with filling material if there is extensive damage.
After the tooth is prepared, we will take an impression of your tooth and the surrounding teeth. This impression will be sent to a dental laboratory, where your custom crown will be crafted to match your natural teeth’s exact shape, size, and color.
While your permanent crown is being made, we will place a temporary crown to protect your tooth. This temporary crown will allow you to eat and speak normally, but you should avoid sticky or hard foods that could dislodge it.
Once your permanent crown is ready, you will return to our office for the final placement. Our dentist will remove the temporary crown and check the fit and color of the permanent one. After ensuring a perfect fit, the crown will be cemented in place, completing the restoration.
