A dental crown is a custom-made restoration that completely covers a damaged tooth above the gum line. Crowns are often recommended when a tooth has extensive decay, a large fracture, significant wear, or has undergone root canal therapy.
A crown fits securely over the remaining healthy tooth structure, protecting it from further damage while restoring its natural shape and function. Modern dental crowns are designed to blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth, allowing you to smile, speak, and chew with confidence.
Today’s crowns are typically crafted from durable porcelain or ceramic materials that closely mimic the appearance of natural tooth enamel, creating beautiful and long-lasting results.
An onlay is a conservative alternative to a full dental crown when a tooth needs more protection than a filling can provide but does not require complete coverage. Sometimes referred to as a “partial crown,” an onlay is custom-designed to restore damaged areas of a tooth while preserving more of the healthy natural structure.
Onlays are commonly used when damage affects one or more cusps (the raised chewing surfaces) of a tooth but the entire tooth does not need to be covered.
During your examination, Dr. Devin Gapstur and Dr. Jessica Sifrig will carefully evaluate the condition of your tooth and recommend the most appropriate treatment.
