Crowns

Top Dentist in St. Louis, MO

At Butler Hill Dental, we specialize in providing high-quality dental crowns, essential for restoring and enhancing the strength, appearance, and functionality of damaged teeth. A dental crown, commonly referred to as a cap, is a custom-fitted covering that encases the entire visible portion of a tooth down to the gum line, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance.

Why Choose a Dental Crown?

Dental crowns offer numerous benefits and are used in several scenarios:

  • Protection: Crowns protect and strengthen teeth that cannot be restored with fillings or other types of restorations.
  • Restoration: They are ideal for restoring a tooth that has been significantly damaged by decay or breakage.
  • Cosmetic Enhancement: Crowns improve the appearance of discolored or poorly shaped teeth.
  • Post-Root Canal: After root canal therapy, crowns provide further protection against fracture and decay.

Materials and Customization

We offer crowns made from various materials, including porcelain, ceramic, zirconia, and metal alloys. Each material has its advantages, and the choice typically depends on the tooth’s location, the color of the adjacent teeth, the function of the tooth, and the patient’s preferences:

    • Porcelain and Ceramic: These materials are popular for their natural color match, making them ideal for front teeth.

    • Zirconia: Known for its durability and strength, zirconia is a great choice for teeth that undergo heavy chewing.

    • Metal Alloys: These are chosen for their strength and are typically used for back teeth.

The Process of Getting a Crown

Getting a dental crown usually requires two visits to our office:

    1. Preparation: The tooth is reshaped to allow the crown to fit seamlessly. An impression of the tooth is taken and sent to a dental lab where the crown is made.

    1. Fitting: On your second visit, the crown is adjusted as needed and then cemented into place, restoring your smile’s functionality and aesthetics.

Post-Treatment Care

Crowns require the same level of care as your natural teeth. Regular brushing and flossing, along with routine dental check-ups, are essential to maintaining the health and longevity of your dental crown.

Conclusion

If you think a dental crown might be right for you, or if you have a tooth that’s damaged or decayed, contact Butler Hill Dental today. Our dedicated team is ready to restore your smile’s beauty and functionality with the best care possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

When might I need a dental crown?
A dental crown may be recommended when a tooth is damaged, weakened, cracked, severely decayed, or needs added protection after root canal therapy. Crowns can also improve the shape or appearance of a tooth when a smaller restoration is not enough.
Butler Hill Dental offers crowns made from materials such as porcelain, ceramic, zirconia, and metal alloys. The right material depends on the tooth’s location, the function of the tooth, your smile goals, and Dr. Teymouri’s recommendation.
The crown process typically involves preparing the tooth, taking an impression, and placing a custom crown once it is ready. The crown is adjusted for fit and then cemented in place to restore the tooth’s function and appearance.
A crown should be cared for much like a natural tooth. Brushing, flossing, and routine dental checkups help protect the crown, the supporting tooth, and the surrounding gums.

I had my new patient exam today and was very impressed.  Dr. Teymouri was very personable and explained things thoroughly.  I like the fact he is the only dentist there so you get him every time. The biggest bonus seems to be the way the office is run.  They are very forthcoming on cost.  Sherry looked up the costs of the recommendations so I know what to expect before booking the appointment.  Extremely organized, especially compared to my past dentist (Kingston Dental)!

Friendly, professional staff and one of the technicians has cleaned my teeth for many years and is excellent.  Today had 2 crowns put in place and they are perfect.  Of course I have great confidence in Dr. Teymouri and appreciate his effort to work with my often busy travel schedule.

Very pleased with the hygenis that cleaned my teeth. Gave me very good information to help control the plack off of my lower teeth in front.
