Dental Crowns – Canonsburg, PA
Preserve & Protect Damaged Teeth
Teeth are one of the strongest substances in the human body, but unfortunately, that doesn’t make them invincible. Hard impacts or a lifetime of wear and tear can cause significant damage. Any resulting cracks and chips weaken the tooth’s structure, making it more vulnerable to further breakage and infectious bacteria. Instead of extracting the troubled tooth, we may be able to preserve it with a dental crown. Call our team today to request an appointment and protect your oral health!

What Is a Dental Crown?
If you were to pick up a dental crown, it would look like a hollowed-out cap designed to fit over a tooth. And in many ways, that’s exactly what it is! The idea is to cover weakened, damaged teeth with durable materials that will both keep the tooth’s structure intact and protect it from further breakage.
At Center One Dental, we use aesthetically seamless material options like resin, porcelain, and ceramic, as well as cost-effective stainless steel.
The Process of Getting a Dental Crown
The process of getting a dental crown in Canonsburg starts with a consultation. Dr. Raj will meet with you to review your health history, examine your cracked or chipped pearly white, and confirm the details of your treatment plan. Once everything is “set in stone,” Dr. Raj will take digital impressions of your mouth and coordinate with a local dental lab to have your permanent crown customized.
It takes about two weeks to craft a perfectly personalized dental crown, and in the meantime, Dr. Raj will provide you with a temporary crown to help keep your tooth protected. As soon as we receive the permanent version from the dental lab, we’ll call you back to the office so you can have your final restoration placed.
Benefits of Getting a Dental Crown
A dental crown can benefit your smile in a number of ways, including (but not limited to):
- Preventing a damaged tooth from needing to be extracted
- Making it easier to chew your food
- Restoring your comfort
- Helping you save money by shielding your tooth from harm
