What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a custom-made “cap” that fits over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, strength, and function. Crowns are commonly used to:

  • Protect a tooth after root canal therapy
  • Rebuild a cracked, broken, or heavily decayed tooth
  • Support a large filling when not enough tooth structure remains
  • Improve the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth
  • Anchor a dental bridge
  • Complete a dental implant restoration

We treat patients from Upper Marlboro, Clinton, Largo, District Heights, and surrounding areas with crowns that are both functional and lifelike.

Types of Crowns We Offer

At Westphalia Dental, we use only high-quality, metal-free materials that are strong and aesthetically pleasing.

  • Porcelain Crowns – Best for front teeth; they blend seamlessly with your natural smile
  • Ceramic Crowns – Durable and stain-resistant, ideal for back teeth under pressure

Each crown is custom-designed to match the color, contour, and bite of your surrounding teeth.

The Dental Crown Process

The procedure typically takes two visits:

  1. Tooth Preparation & Temporary Crown
    We remove any decay or old fillings, reshape the tooth, and take digital impressions. You’ll receive a temporary crown to wear while your permanent crown is crafted.
  2. Final Crown PlacementOnce your crown is ready, we check the fit and color before permanently bonding it in place.

Need urgent help? We also offer emergency dental care and can place temporary crowns quickly for patients experiencing pain or damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do dental crowns last?

Most crowns last 10–15 years, and often much longer with proper care. Brushing, flossing, and regular checkups help maximize longevity.

Are crowns painful to get?

No. We use local anesthetic during the procedure and ensure your comfort throughout. You may experience mild sensitivity after preparation, but this resolves quickly.

Can I eat normally with a crown?

Yes. Once your crown is placed, you’ll be able to chew, bite, and speak normally. Ceramic crowns are strong enough for daily use, including back teeth.

What if my crown feels off?

If your bite feels unbalanced or your crown feels “off,” contact us. We’ll adjust it for comfort. A perfectly fitted crown should feel just like a natural tooth.

Are same-day crowns available?

In some cases, yes. While most crowns require two visits, we offer expedited options and temporary restorations to get you out of pain quickly.
