Why Choose Porcelain Crowns?

Porcelain crowns offer a seamless blend of strength, durability, and beauty. Unlike other materials, porcelain mimics the natural translucency of your teeth, so your smile stays as radiant as it is healthy. Whether you're repairing a damaged tooth or completing a full smile makeover, a porcelain crown provides a solution that's both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

Expert Crown Placement by Dr. Barsa and Dr. Delafuente

Dr. Barsa and Dr. Delafuente bring a keen eye for detail to every crown placement, using tools like 3D CT scanning to make sure each crown fits precisely. Our practice's focus on craftsmanship means a comfortable experience and a result that holds up over time.

What to Expect During the Porcelain Crown Procedure

Your journey starts with a detailed consultation at our North Center office, where we assess your dental health and smile goals. The procedure involves preparing the tooth, taking precise impressions, and crafting a crown that blends naturally with your existing teeth. If a tooth is too far gone for a crown alone to repair, we may instead recommend a root canal or, in more severe cases, a tooth extraction followed by a bridge or implant.

Maintaining Your Porcelain Crowns

Keeping your crowns looking great is simple with the right routine:

• Practice good oral hygiene: Brush twice daily with a soft-bristled brush and fluoride toothpaste, and floss daily around the crown edges to prevent decay and gum disease.
• Keep up with regular dental check-ups: Routine exams and cleanings every six months let us monitor your crowns and catch any issues early.
• Eat mindfully: Porcelain is durable but not indestructible — avoid chewing ice, hard candy, or using your teeth to open packaging.
• Limit staining substances: Porcelain resists stains well, but coffee, red wine, and tobacco can still leave a mark over time.
• Wear a nightguard if you grind your teeth: Grinding can wear down crowns just as it does natural teeth.
