Crown Options

Which Crown Type is Right For You?

We offer two premium crown materials each with unique strengths. Dr. Bishay will help you choose the best option based on your tooth location, bite, and aesthetic goals.

Porcelain Crowns

The most popular choice because they closely mimic the natural appearance of teeth. Porcelain crowns are highly durable and are matched to the exact shape, size, and color of your surrounding teeth giving you a beautiful, natural-looking smile.

Key Benefits

Most natural-looking option available
Perfectly matched to your tooth color & shape
Highly durable, lasts many years with proper care
Ideal for front teeth where aesthetics matter most
Biocompatible gentle on gum tissue

Zirconia Crowns

A newer, advanced ceramic material zirconium oxide that is stronger than porcelain and many metal alloys. Zirconia crowns cause less wear on opposing teeth, are highly resistant to chipping, and provide excellent long-term durability for back teeth and heavy bite forces.

Key Benefits

Stronger than porcelain and some metal alloys
Fewer sharp edges from normal wear over time
Causes less stress & damage on opposing teeth
Helps prevent enamel erosion on adjacent teeth
Ideal for back teeth & heavy chewing areas

Got Questions?

Dental Crown FAQs

When do I need a dental crown?

You may need a crown if your tooth is cracked, severely decayed, weakened after a root canal, has a large filling that needs replacing, or is broken. A crown is also used to complete a dental implant. Dr. Bishay will examine your tooth and recommend the best course of action.

Is getting a crown painful?

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you should feel little to no discomfort during treatment. Some mild sensitivity is normal for a few days after placement, but this fades quickly. Our team uses gentle techniques to keep you comfortable throughout.

How long does a crown last?

With proper care, a porcelain crown typically lasts 10–15+ years, while zirconia crowns can last 15–20+ years. The lifespan depends on your oral hygiene habits, bite, and whether you grind your teeth. Regular dental checkups help extend the life of your crown.

Which is better porcelain or zirconia?

Both are excellent options. Porcelain is preferred for front teeth due to its superior aesthetics. Zirconia is stronger and better suited for back teeth or patients with heavy bite forces. Dr. Bishay will help you decide based on your specific needs and goals.

How many appointments does a crown take?

A traditional crown typically requires two appointments one to prepare the tooth and place a temporary crown, and a second to bond the permanent crown. The process usually spans 2–3 weeks, depending on the dental lab’s turnaround time.

Does insurance cover dental crowns?

Many dental insurance plans cover a portion of crown costs when deemed medically necessary (for example, after a root canal or to restore a broken tooth). Our team will verify your benefits and help maximize your coverage. We also offer flexible financing for any out-of-pocket costs.

Protect Your Tooth Before It's Too Late

If you’re experiencing sensitivity, pain, or have a damaged tooth, don’t wait. A crown placed early can save your tooth and prevent more costly treatment down the road.
