Understanding Dental Crowns

Dental crowns, also known as tooth caps, completely cover the outside and top of your tooth. Crowns are placed on broken teeth, damaged tooth structures, and teeth that have had root canals. 

Our team will do our best to work with your natural tooth structure to make the service as efficient for you as possible. In many cases though, we may need to use the help of a dental implant to act as the tooth root and then place a dental crown once the implant is set in place.

How You’ll Love Tooth Crowns

There’s a high possibility you’ve probably heard of dental crowns before—and for good reason. These are a few reasons individuals have grown to love dental crown technology. 

  • Fit Your Natural Teeth: Dental crowns imitate the functionality of your normal smile, allowing our patients to go about their typical habits.
  • Reduce Tooth Infection: Mishandled dental damage can turn into dental infections over time. Be sure to fill in these areas with tooth caps before they get intolerable.
  • Prevent Possible Damage: Your surrounding teeth rely on each other to stay straight and intact. Even one damaged tooth can lead to further damage.

Dental Crowns at Three Rivers Dental

Dr. Evon and our team are happy to offer three different dental crown options at our Flathead Valley location. We will decide which dental crown will work best for you based on not only the position of the tooth, but also your personal considerations. 

From your initial consultation to the final placement of your crown, we take the time to understand your concerns, answer your questions, and make your experience as comfortable as possible.

E.max crowns are an advanced product in the modern dental market. These e.max crowns are metal-free ceramic crowns that are known for their strong lifespan and translucency. We typically recommend this type of crown for patients who’d like a faster restoration option for their teeth. E.max crowns are ideal for patients who need their front teeth placed for aesthetics.

Zirconia crowns are also made out of a ceramic material. These biocompatible crowns are less likely to cause a reaction for individuals with allergies to metal or prone to tooth irritation. These crowns have a greater chewing capability as well, making them ideal for a patient’s back teeth or molars.

Gold dental crowns have been a trusted option in dentistry for decades due to their exceptional fit and longevity. These crowns provide an almost perfect seal, reducing the risk of decay and lasting up to 30 years with proper care. While gold wears down faster than some materials, its precise fit and durability make it a reliable choice for long-term dental restorations. 

If you have any questions about our dental crown services, feel free to let our team know! Call our office to schedule an initial consultation today.

After the Dental Crown Appointment

Once your dental crown is placed, Dr. Evon will provide guidance on maintaining your restoration and overall oral health. Thanks to advanced technology and meticulous preparation, sensitivity is rarely an issue. The process used at Three Rivers Dental removes all bacteria and particles before placement, ensuring a clean, secure bond with strong 3M cement that eliminates the need for harsh chemical bonding methods.

While minor bite adjustments may occasionally be needed, most patients adapt quickly to their new crown with little to no discomfort. If you have any concerns after your appointment, our team is here to help!

Dental Crowns with Implants: A Complete Tooth Replacement Solution

For patients missing teeth, dental crowns and implants work together to create a strong, natural-looking, and long-lasting solution. A dental implant acts as an artificial tooth root, providing a stable foundation for a custom-crafted crown that looks, feels, and functions just like a natural tooth. This combination not only restores chewing ability and speech but also prevents bone loss and maintains the integrity of your jaw structure.

Exceptional Tooth Restoration from an Implants Expert

Dr. Evon specializes in advanced implant dentistry and has earned a Fellowship with the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (ICOI)—a distinction that requires extensive training, documented successful implant cases, and ongoing education in cutting-edge implant techniques. She goes above and beyond the minimum required continuing education hours by getting 100 hours of additional training a year to keep up with every latest dental development.

Her expertise ensures that each implant-supported crown is precisely placed for optimal aesthetics, function, and long-term success.

If you’re considering dental implants with crowns as a permanent solution for missing teeth, schedule a consultation at Three Rivers Dental today!

A Dental Crown Success Story

One patient came in with multiple fractures on his front crowns (done less than 7 years before). He was interested in fixing just those teeth but found himself with an overbite. 

After a detailed smile and functional analysis, he decided on a plan that would use porcelain crowns to build up his teeth in the back and allow him to chew properly. These dental crowns also gave the front of his smile room to prevent future chipping and breaking. 

This patient was very satisfied and is continuously showing off his smile!
