What Are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are custom-made caps that cover a damaged tooth, restoring its shape, size, and strength while improving its appearance. Crowns are an ideal solution for teeth that are:
-
Decayed or Damaged: Protect and restore teeth with significant decay or fractures.
-
Weak or Cracked: Prevent further damage to weakened or cracked teeth.
-
Discolored or Misshapen: Improve the appearance of teeth that are discolored or misshapen.
-
Following a Root Canal: Safeguard teeth that have undergone root canal treatment.
Types of Dental Crowns at Camarillo Premier Dental
At Camarillo Premier Dental, we offer a variety of crown materials to suit your individual needs:
-
Porcelain Crowns: Natural-looking and ideal for front teeth, porcelain crowns blend seamlessly with your existing teeth.
-
Ceramic Crowns: Highly aesthetic and durable, ceramic crowns are perfect for patients with metal allergies.

Metal Crowns: Extremely durable and best suited for molars, metal crowns can withstand strong chewing forces.
-
Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) Crowns: These crowns combine the strength of metal with the aesthetics of porcelain.
The Crown Placement Process
-
Consultation and Examination: We begin with a thorough examination, including digital X-rays, to assess your tooth’s condition and determine the best type of crown.
-
Tooth Preparation: The damaged tooth is shaped to make room for the crown. Impressions are taken to create a custom crown that fits perfectly.
-
Temporary Crown: While your permanent crown is being crafted, we place a temporary crown to protect your tooth.
-
Crown Placement: Once your custom crown is ready, it is securely placed and adjusted for a perfect fit.
Caring for Your Dental Crown
Caring for your crown is essential for its longevity. We recommend:
-
Regular Brushing and Flossing: Maintain good oral hygiene to keep the underlying tooth and gums healthy.
-
Avoiding Hard Foods: Be cautious with hard or sticky foods that could damage your crown.
-
Routine Dental Visits: Regular check-ups allow us to monitor your crown and address any concerns promptly.
