Damaged, cracked, or worn teeth can impact your appearance, oral health, and overall comfort.
At The Dental Team in Loveland, we offer high-quality, custom dental crowns designed to restore strength, function, and aesthetics to your smile. Whether you’re repairing a weakened tooth with a crown or enhancing your look with veneers, our skilled team is here to help. Using advanced materials and precise craftsmanship, we create crowns that are durable, comfortable, and seamlessly match your natural teeth. For teeth that are decayed or structurally compromised, a dental crown provides reliable, long-term protection.
A dental crown is a custom-made cap placed over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are often recommended for teeth that are severely decayed, cracked, or worn, and they’re also commonly used after root canal therapy or to complete a dental implant.
At The Dental Team in Loveland, CO, we offer a range of crown materials to meet your unique needs:
A crown delivers crucial protection to ensure that a weakened tooth does not suffer additional harm.
Having a dental crown placed typically involves two visits.
First Visit: Your dentist will carefully reshape the tooth so the crown can fit securely. Next, they’ll take either digital scans or traditional impressions to design your custom crown. A temporary crown will then be placed to protect the tooth until your permanent crown is ready.
Second Visit: Once your crown is crafted, your dentist will bond it to your tooth using strong dental cement. They’ll check your bite and make any adjustments needed for a comfortable fit. With your new crown in place, you’ll regain full function and a natural look, making it easier to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
For patients wanting a quicker solution, same-day crown options may be available.
Veneers offer a simple, minimally invasive way to transform the appearance of your teeth.
These thin, custom-crafted porcelain shells are bonded to the front of your teeth to correct issues such as discoloration, small gaps, chips, or uneven shapes. Unlike crowns, which cover the whole tooth, veneers preserve most of your natural tooth structure while still delivering a noticeable improvement in appearance. They’re a great option for anyone looking to achieve a brighter, more uniform, and confident smile.
With proper care, dental crowns and veneers can last for many years. To keep your smile healthy and your restorations looking their best, follow these simple tips:
Consistent brushing and flossing help prevent plaque buildup around your crowns or veneers.
Avoid biting down on hard items or using your teeth to open packages, as this can damage both natural teeth and restorations.
If you clench or grind your teeth, wearing a nightguard can protect your dental work from excess pressure.
Regular checkups allow your dentist to monitor the health of your teeth and the condition of your restorations, ensuring they stay strong and functional.
Dental crowns may be recommended if you have:
Veneers are a great option for patients who:
During your consultation, our team will carefully evaluate your smile and recommend the treatment that best meets your needs and goals.
Most patients experience little to no discomfort after getting a dental crown, but following a few simple tips can help ensure a smooth recovery and long-lasting results.
It’s common to have mild sensitivity to hot or cold for a few days. This usually improves as your tooth adjusts to the crown. Over-the-counter pain medication can help manage any minor soreness.
For the first 24 hours, avoid sticky, hard, or crunchy foods to give the cement time to fully set. If you’re wearing a temporary crown, try not to chew on that side until your permanent crown is in place.
Keep up with daily brushing and flossing, but be gentle around the crowned tooth. For a temporary crown, slide the floss out instead of pulling upward to avoid loosening it.
If your bite feels off or you experience ongoing discomfort, contact your dentist so they can make adjustments to your crown or veneers.
Most patients are able to return to their normal routines the very same day. With consistent oral hygiene habits and routine dental checkups, your crowns or veneers can stay strong, functional, and looking their best for many years.
You’ll see an immediate improvement in your smile as soon as your permanent crown is placed.
Designed to look and feel just like a natural tooth, your crown allows you to eat, speak, and smile confidently from day one. With proper care, crowns can often last 10–15 years or more. Protect your investment by maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding habits like grinding your teeth, chewing on hard objects, or skipping regular dental checkups.
With proper care, a dental crown can significantly improve both your smile and your oral health. Regular dental visits and good at-home hygiene are key to keeping it in top shape.
With proper care, dental crowns can often last 10–15 years or more. Their lifespan depends on factors like your oral hygiene routine, eating habits, and frequency of dental visits. To help your crown last longer, avoid chewing on hard objects, grinding your teeth, or skipping regular checkups.
The procedure is typically comfortable and pain-free. Before shaping the tooth, your dentist will numb the area with local anesthesia. You may notice some mild soreness or sensitivity afterward, which usually fades within a few days. Over-the-counter pain relievers can help ease any temporary discomfort.
The right crown for you will depend on your needs and priorities:
Your dentist will recommend the material that best fits your goals for strength, appearance, and function.
While uncommon, a crown can loosen or fall off due to worn cement or biting into something hard. If this happens, contact your Loveland Dental Team dentist right away so it can be re-cemented or replaced if needed. Keeping up with regular visits and avoiding hard foods helps reduce this risk.
Crowns don’t respond to whitening treatments the same way natural teeth do. If you plan to whiten your smile, it’s best to do so before getting a crown so the shade matches. For discolored crowns, replacement may be the best way to improve color consistency with your natural teeth.
To protect your crown:
Once your gums heal and the crown is fully bonded, most patients can return to eating normally.
