CROWNS IN ATTLEBORO, MA

RESTORE FUNCTION, STRENGTH, AND BEAUTY

At Orchid Dental, Dr. Trinh Vo and our skilled team are dedicated to restoring the health, function, and appearance of your smile with expert care. Cracked, chipped, or severely decayed teeth can take a toll on your confidence and comfort, but dental crowns offer a reliable, long-lasting solution to repair damage and strengthen your teeth while preserving a natural look.

Using advanced technology and a personalized approach, we design custom crowns that match the color and shape of your existing teeth. If you’ve been experiencing discomfort, reduced chewing ability, or a weakened tooth structure, a dental crown can help protect your smile and prevent more serious issues from developing.

WHAT IS A DENTAL CROWN?

A dental crown is a custom-made cap that covers the entire visible portion of a tooth. Designed to restore strength, shape, and appearance, crowns are often used when a tooth is too damaged to be repaired with a simple filling. Crafted from durable materials such as porcelain, ceramic, or zirconia, crowns are built to last and made to match the natural color of your teeth for a seamless result.

Dental crowns help protect vulnerable teeth, restore function, and enhance aesthetics—making them a versatile solution for many dental concerns.

YOU MAY BENEFIT FROM A CROWN IF YOU'rE EXPERIENCING:

• A cracked or fractured tooth
• Severe tooth decay that cannot be treated with a filling
• A worn-down or weakened tooth from grinding or erosion
• Discomfort while chewing due to tooth damage
• A tooth that has undergone root canal therapy
• Misshapen or severely discolored teeth
• A broken tooth that needs structural support
• A dental implant that requires a final restoration

If you notice any of these symptoms or have been told you need restorative dental care, a crown might be the ideal solution. We’ll assess your situation and recommend the best course of treatment to restore your smile’s strength and appearance.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING THE DENTAL CROWN PROCESS

Getting a dental crown is a simple and effective treatment, completed in three steps:

1 - Consultation and Planning

During your first visit, we’ll examine your tooth and discuss your treatment needs. Using advanced digital scanning technology, we’ll take precise impressions to design a custom crown that blends perfectly with your natural teeth. 

2 - Preparation of the Tooth

We’ll gently remove any damaged or decayed areas and reshape the tooth to fit the crown. A temporary crown will be placed to protect your tooth while your permanent crown is crafted. 

3 - Delivery and Placement of the Crown

Once your custom crown is ready, you’ll return for placement. We’ll ensure the crown fits comfortably, make any needed adjustments, and securely bond it in place. 

The result? A restored tooth that looks, feels, and functions just like your own. With proper care, your dental crown can last for many years, helping maintain a healthy and confident smile.
