A Durable and Natural-Looking Solution
Dental crowns offer a variety of benefits. Patients of our Warsaw, IN, dental practice can expect:
Protection
Teeth that have been damaged due to trauma or have undergone a root canal are completely covered with a dental crown to provide protection from further damage. We can also provide a temporary crown while your permanent restoration is being completed.
Durability
Modern crowns are built to last. In fact, by practicing proper hygiene and making regular visits to your dentist, you can expect your crown to last 10 years or more.
Aesthetics
Today's crowns are virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth. You can expect your smile to look healthy and attractive after your dentist completes your crown procedure.
What Happens During Dental Crown Treatment?
Once the tooth has been treated, your dentist will remove a conservative amount of tissue to create a proper base for your crown.

They are kind, friendly, speedy, and financially reasonable! They are great with kids. They have the option of watching Netflix while in the dental chair which helps during procedures. We have been for 3 visits now and I'm glad that we switched!

Reasons for Treatment
Also known as "caps," dental crowns work by completely covering the tooth to the gumline, or by completely replacing teeth in conjunction with dental implants. Dental crowns have a diverse set of applications:
Dental crowns serve as the final step in a root canal to ensure support and prevent further infection.
This solution can strengthen and protect a tooth that has a weakened structure due to trauma or cracks.
If a filling alone cannot adequately restore a tooth after cavity treatment, a cap may be a better solution.
If one or more teeth have suffered significant wear, crowns can restore height and other dimensions.
We design custom dental implant-supported crowns that can replace a missing tooth.
When replacing a tooth with a traditional bridge, crowns are placed on either side of the gap to provide support.
High-Quality Restorative Materials Ensure a Superior Dental Crown
Though dental crowns can be constructed using a number of materials, our use of porcelain crowns provides a superior cosmetic result. In addition to restoring full functionality, these crowns blend seamlessly into your smile. The placement of dental crowns can also be combined with additional cosmetic treatments, such as whitening, to enhance the final results.
While traditional metal crowns are distracting when placed on visible teeth, porcelain is designed to mimic the properties of natural tooth enamel. We match the shade of porcelain to your existing tooth enamel for a natural-looking result. If you have an existing metal crown that you would like to replace, we are happy to update your smile with a custom porcelain alternative.
What Happens During Dental Crown Treatment?
Treatment at our Warsaw, IN, practice is convenient and effective. We offer same-day crowns, but some materials may require taking the traditional approach, which usually spans at least two office visits:

Nervous about dental treatment?
We Offer Sedation Dentistry for Maximum Comfort
At our Warsaw, IN, dental practice, we offer different methods of sedation to ensure our patients are comfortable during treatment. Sedation dentistry is particularly beneficial for people with severe dental anxiety or those undergoing long procedures like dental implant placement.
We provide three different methods to induce a state of relaxation before beginning dental work: oral conscious sedation, nitrous oxide, and IV sedation. Don't let anxiety get in the way of important dental treatment. The skilled team at Dental Solutions makes your comfort and safety our top priorities!
Maintaining Your Dental Crown
Good Oral Hygiene
Brush your teeth twice daily, and floss at least once a day to prevent plaque build-up and infection. Floss carefully around your crown and use an oral irrigator (water flosser) to clean hard-to-reach places.
Avoid Excessive Force
Refrain from grinding your teeth, opening packages with your bite, or eating foods that are excessively hard and sticky. Your dental crown can wear just like your natural teeth and can crack under severe pressure.
Attend Dental Check-Ups
Never underestimate the importance of your bi-annual check-up at our dentist's office in Warsaw. These appointments let us provide a thorough cleaning and check for any problems with your restoration.

The office staff were great. Tammy responded quickly to my dental emergency. Dr. Stoffer and his assistant were very kind and helpful. I needed more work than I expected but the doctor explained it clearly. He took his time and I never felt rushed. I highly recommend!

These guys never ever fail to impress. I can use the example today. I broke my tooth, twice within a weeks time and not only did they get me in on the day of calling. They go out of their way to help and have you leave with a smile. Definitely would recommend to everyone
