Dental Crowns in Palm Harbor and Trinity, FL

Restore Strength, Function, and Beauty to Your Smile at Prestige Dentistry

Damaged or weakened teeth can impact more than just your oral health—they can also affect your confidence, your comfort, and your quality of life. At Prestige Dentistry, we provide custom dental crowns in Palm Harbor and Trinity, FL to restore and protect your natural teeth with durable, lifelike results.

Whether you need to repair a fractured tooth, cover a large filling, or enhance the appearance of a misshapen tooth, our crowns offer a long-lasting, aesthetically pleasing solution.

What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown, also known as a “cap,” is a tooth-shaped restoration that completely covers the visible portion of a damaged or compromised tooth. Crowns are custom-made to match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth, blending seamlessly into your smile.

They are typically made from strong, biocompatible materials like ceramic, porcelain, zirconia, or a combination of metal and porcelain, depending on your needs and preferences.

Crowns are commonly recommended for:

• Teeth with large fillings
• Severely worn or cracked teeth
• Teeth after root canal treatment
• Misshapen or discolored teeth
• Supporting a dental bridge
• Covering a dental implant

Benefits of Dental Crowns

At Prestige Dentistry, we design crowns that do more than just restore strength—they also improve appearance and prevent further damage. Key benefits include:

• Protection: Crowns shield weakened teeth from further cracking or decay.
• Longevity: With proper care, dental crowns can last 10–15 years or more.
• Comfort: Crowns restore full function so you can eat, speak, and smile comfortably.
• Aesthetics: Modern ceramic crowns look and feel like natural teeth.
• Versatility: Crowns are used in many restorative and cosmetic dental treatments.

Our Dental Crown Process

At Prestige Dentistry, your crown treatment is tailored to your needs. We combine advanced dental technology with a patient-first approach to make the experience efficient and stress-free.

• Step 1: Consultation and Examination
  We begin with a thorough evaluation of your tooth, gums, and bite. Digital X-rays and intraoral scans help us determine whether a crown is the best treatment and assist in planning your restoration.
• Step 2: Tooth Preparation
  The tooth is reshaped and cleaned to make room for the crown. We remove any decayed or damaged portions and build up the tooth if needed to support the crown properly.
• Step 3: Digital Impressions
  We use digital scanners to take accurate 3D impressions—no goopy molds required. These are sent to a dental lab to craft your custom crown.
• Step 4: Temporary Crown
  While your permanent crown is being fabricated, we place a temporary crown to protect your tooth and maintain comfort.
• Step 5: Crown Placement
  Once your final crown is ready (typically within 1–2 weeks), we remove the temporary, make any necessary adjustments, and bond the new crown securely in place.

Same-Day Crowns with CEREC Technology

For qualifying cases, we offer same-day crowns at our Palm Harbor and Trinity locations using CEREC technology. This system allows us to design, create, and place your crown in a single visit, eliminating the need for a temporary crown and a second appointment.

Same-day crowns are crafted from high-quality ceramic and milled right in our office for a precise, comfortable fit. Ask us if you’re a candidate for this convenient option.

Types of Crowns We Offer

We provide a range of crown materials depending on your specific dental goals:

• All-Ceramic Crowns: Highly aesthetic and metal-free, ideal for front teeth.
• Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM): Strong and natural-looking, often used for back teeth.
• Zirconia Crowns: Incredibly durable and resistant to wear, great for patients who grind their teeth.
• Gold Crowns: Long-lasting and gentle on opposing teeth, but more noticeable visually.

During your visit, we’ll walk you through the pros and cons of each material and help you choose what’s best for your situation.
