Happy with Their Results?

Kate’s Testimonial:
“It’s amazing how different a great smile makes you feel. The doctors and Care Team at Smiles for Life have changed my life. I feel much more confident and smile a lot more. Customers have seen my picture in the paper and have come up to me at work to comment on the change. Members of my family were so happy they were almost in tears and I feel so blessed to have been chosen for this. I have always been afraid of the dentist, which is part of the reason my mouth was in the shape it was in. Not anymore!”

Types of Crowns
We Can Provide in the Harrisonburg, VA, Area
Traditional Dental Crown
A traditional dental crown is a prosthetic tooth that caps a tooth after decayed or damaged structure has been removed.
The crown, typically made from dental-grade porcelain, protects the tooth and allows it to function properly without pain or discomfort. In some cases, our office offers same-day crowns, so you won’t need to be fitted with a temporary crown or schedule a follow-up appointment to place your permanent crown.
Implant-Supported Crown
If you have a missing tooth or need a tooth extraction, a dental implant can replace the tooth roots in your jaw, prevent your jawbone from atrophying, and provide a firm foundation for a crown. The crown then functions like a natural tooth. This restorative dentistry procedure is a good option for patients who are missing a single tooth.

- In addition, crowns are also frequently used as the final phase of root canal therapy.
- If you will be receiving a traditional dental bridge, this type of restoration will typically be secured in place by dental crowns on each end.
- A crown can be secured to an implant to replace a missing tooth

Receiving a Traditional Dental Crown

Receiving a Same-Day Dental Crown
Anesthesia
As with the traditional crown process, we will administer anesthesia and sedation as needed.
Preparation
We will also prepare your tooth for the same-day crown by cleaning and reshaping it.
Impressions and Design
After taking dental impressions of the tooth, the information will be uploaded to the CEREC machine. Using the CEREC software, our dentists can design the crown on-site.
Fabrication
Your crown will then be milled from a block of dental-grade porcelain. The entire fabrication process can be completed in less than 30 minutes, and you can relax with a cup of coffee while you wait or watch your crown be milled. Because the crown is made in our office, there is no need to wear a temporary crown.
Crown Placement
Once the permanent crown is ready, we will bond it in place to instantly repair your smile.
