When tooth decay, damage, or a cracked tooth compromises your smile, our precision-crafted crowns restore both function and beauty. At SmileWorks Manhattan, we specialize in dental crowns NYC residents trust for lasting results. Our state-of-the-art facility uses advanced 3D scanning and printing technology to create same day crowns that fit perfectly and look completely natural.
Whether you need to protect a tooth after root canal treatment or restore broken teeth, our experienced team provides comprehensive dental restoration options. We understand that damaged tooth structure affects more than just your appearance — it impacts how you eat, speak, and feel about yourself. That’s why we offer multiple crown materials, from beautiful porcelain crowns to durable zirconia crowns, ensuring your new crown meets both your aesthetic and functional needs.
Understanding When You Need a Dental Crown
A tooth crown becomes necessary when remaining tooth structure can’t support normal function. Common situations requiring crowns include severe tooth decay that weakens the tooth structure, fractures that expose inner layers, or after root canal therapy when the tooth needs reinforcement. Large fillings that compromise more than half of the tooth often fail without crown protection, while dental implant crowns complete the restoration of missing teeth.
Our gentle approach minimizes tooth structure removal while ensuring your crown fits properly. Unlike older techniques requiring extensive preparation, our digital technology allows for less tooth structure removal, preserving more of your natural tooth enamel. This conservative approach means stronger teeth and better long-term outcomes for our New York patients.
Achieve a flawless smile with expertly crafted dental crowns—designed for comfort, durability, and a natural look you can trust.
Advanced Crown Options at SmileWorks
Dental crowns come in various materials, each offering distinct advantages depending on your specific needs. Each type of crown has its unique benefits, and at SmileWorks, we will help you choose which is right for you based on your dental needs and personal preferences.
Porcelain Crowns
Porcelain crowns are an excellent choice for front teeth due to their natural appearance. They are crafted to mimic the translucence and shade of real teeth, making them virtually indistinguishable from your surrounding teeth. All porcelain crowns are popular for those who prioritize aesthetics. These crowns are particularly effective in restoring teeth and addressing dental concerns related to appearance.
Ceramic Crowns
Ceramic crowns are similar to porcelain in appearance and are highly resistant to wear and staining. They are biocompatible, making them an excellent choice for those with metal allergies. These all-ceramic crowns provide both strength and beauty and are often used for visible teeth that require durability.
Metal Crowns
Metal crowns are known for their durability and longevity. Made from gold, palladium, or base metal alloys, they can withstand heavy biting forces, making them ideal for molars. While some may perceive them as less visually appealing due to their metallic color, metal crowns are incredibly sturdy and can last for many years. Metal crowns are an excellent option for patients who want to prioritize maintaining a strong bite.
Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) Crowns
PFM crowns combine the strength of metal with the natural look of porcelain. The metal base ensures durability, while the porcelain outer layer blends with your natural teeth. This type is a solid choice for both front and back teeth, balancing aesthetics and strength. PFM crowns are ideal for patients looking to restore teeth without compromising durability.
Resin Crowns
Resin crowns are more affordable but may not be as durable as porcelain or metal. They can wear down over time and are more prone to chipping. However, they can still be a viable option for temporary crowns or those seeking a more budget-friendly solution.
The SmileWorks Crown Procedure
Your crown experience begins with gentle preparation using local anesthesia for complete comfort. We carefully shape the remaining tooth, removing only damaged areas while preserving healthy tooth structure. Our 3D scanner captures precise digital images, eliminating messy impression materials. For same day crowns, we design your restoration chairside, allowing you to see the process and provide input on shape and color.
While traditional crowns require multiple visits, our process streamlines your care. If you’re receiving a lab-fabricated crown, we protect your prepared tooth with a temporary crown until your custom restoration arrives from our dental lab. Once ready, we ensure perfect fit and bite alignment before the crown is permanently cemented. We check that adjacent teeth contact properly and your bite feels natural before you leave.
Protecting Your Investment
Understanding how long do dental crowns last helps you protect your investment. With proper care, porcelain crowns typically last 10-15 years, while metal and zirconia crowns can last even longer. Regular professional cleanings and good home care prevent decay at the crown margins and protect surrounding bone health. We recommend avoiding hard foods that could damage your crown and wearing a nightguard if you grind your teeth.
Dental insurance often covers a significant portion of crown costs, especially when the crown addresses dental damage rather than cosmetic concerns. Our experienced staff maximizes your dental insurance benefits and offers flexible payment plans for any remaining balance. We believe quality dental care should be accessible to all New York residents who need it.
