When a Damaged Tooth Steals Your Confidence

A cracked, chipped, or worn-down tooth can do more than just affect your bite, it can quietly impact how you feel every time you smile, speak, or eat. Even a single damaged tooth can become a daily reminder of discomfort or self-consciousness, especially in social or professional settings.

Left untreated, that one tooth can lead to bigger dental issues: shifting bite alignment, jaw strain, or even tooth loss. But perhaps most importantly, it can chip away at your confidence. If you’ve found yourself hiding your smile in photos or avoiding certain foods out of fear, you’re not alone. The good news? There’s a proven solution that can restore more than just your tooth, it can restore the way you carry yourself.

Tempe’s Trusted Solution for Beautiful, Long-Lasting Dental Crowns

When you choose a dental crown, you’re not just repairing a tooth, you’re restoring function, protecting your oral health, and preserving your natural appearance. At Tempe Dentistry, we specialize in crafting high-quality crowns that feel as good as they look.

Our team uses cutting-edge technology and a comfort-first approach to ensure that from your first visit to final placement, your crown experience is smooth, precise, and confidence-boosting.

The Crown Procedure Process

Getting a dental crown is a straightforward two-appointment process that restores your tooth’s strength and appearance.

First Visit (60-90 minutes) We prepare your tooth by removing damaged structure, take precise impressions for your custom crown, and place a temporary crown to protect the tooth while your permanent crown is crafted in the lab.

Between Appointments (1-2 weeks) Your custom crown is fabricated using high-quality materials matched to your natural tooth color and shape.

Second Visit (30-45 minutes) We remove the temporary crown, check the fit and bite of your permanent crown, make any needed adjustments, then permanently cement it in place.

Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can return to normal activities immediately after each appointment. The entire process typically takes 2-3 weeks from start to finish depending on their unique situation. You can learn more about dental crowns from the Cleveland Clinic.

Common Questions About Dental Crowns
What are dental crowns used for?

Dental crowns in restorative dentistry are used to restore and protect teeth that are cracked, worn, decayed, or weakened from large fillings or root canal therapy. They cover the entire tooth surface to bring back strength, shape, and appearance, so you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence again.

How long do dental crowns last?

With proper care, dental crowns can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years—or even longer. The lifespan depends on the material used and your daily habits. Brushing, flossing, and routine dental checkups go a long way in helping your crown last.

Do dental crowns look natural?

Absolutely. Today’s crowns are custom-made to match the exact color and contour of your natural teeth. Materials like porcelain or zirconia blend seamlessly, so most people will never know you have a crown unless you tell them.

What are the different types of crown materials?

We offer four main crown materials: porcelain (best for front teeth aesthetics), zirconia (strongest option for back teeth), porcelain-fused-to-metal or PFM (good strength and appearance balance), and gold alloy (longest-lasting for back molars). Dr. Chan recommends the best material based on the tooth location, your bite force, and aesthetic needs.

What’s the difference between porcelain and zirconia crowns?

Porcelain crowns offer the most natural appearance and light reflection, making them ideal for front teeth. Zirconia crowns are much stronger and resist chipping, making them better for back teeth or patients who grind their teeth. Zirconia also maintains good aesthetics while providing superior durability.

How much do different crown materials cost?

Gold crowns typically cost $1,200-$1,500, zirconia crowns range $1,000-$1,300, porcelain crowns cost $900-$1,200, and PFM crowns range $800-$1,000. The specific cost depends on your case complexity and tooth location. We provide detailed estimates during consultation and work with insurance to maximize your benefits.

Are dental crowns right for everyone?

Dental crowns can restore strength, function, and appearance to damaged or weakened teeth, but every patient’s situation is unique. Factors like tooth structure, gum health, bite alignment, and existing restorations all determine whether a crown is the best option. Before recommending treatment, your dentist will evaluate your oral health and discuss the materials and approach that fit your needs. (This information is meant to help you understand how crowns work and shouldn’t replace personalized advice from a licensed dental professional.)
