Dental Crowns

If you have a damaged, weakened, or severely decayed tooth, a dental crown can restore both its strength and appearance. Dental crowns are custom-made caps that fit securely over your existing tooth, protecting it while restoring your smile’s natural function. 

Whether you're dealing with a cracked tooth, a large filling, or need a crown after a root canal, this versatile solution can help preserve your tooth for years to come. At Radiant Smiles Dental in Houston, TX, we provide high-quality dental crowns with a focus on comfort, precision, and lasting results, all delivered by Dr. Ekwem in a warm, stress-free environment.

The Benefits of Dental Crowns

Protects and Preserves Natural Teeth

Crowns act like armor for your tooth. If you’ve had a root canal, a dental injury, or a large cavity, a crown prevents further damage and keeps your tooth structure intact. That means fewer future dental issues and more peace of mind.

Restores Function and Comfort

When a tooth isn’t structurally sound, it can make chewing uncomfortable or even painful. A dental crown restores full function, so you can chew, speak, and smile with ease. No more avoiding one side of your mouth or skipping your favorite foods.

Blends Seamlessly with Your Smile

Modern crowns are designed to match the color and shape of your existing teeth, creating a completely natural look. Whether you need a crown in the front or back of your mouth, no one will ever know it’s not your real tooth! You’ll feel confident every time you smile.

What to Expect From Dental Crowns

Personalized Consultation and Tooth Preparation

Your visit begins with a gentle exam from Dr. Ekwem, who will assess the tooth and explain whether a crown is right for you. If so, the tooth will be shaped and prepared to make space for the crown. We’ll then take detailed digital impressions, and you’ll be fitted with a temporary crown to protect the area while your permanent one is being crafted.

Crown Fabrication and Placement

Using your digital impressions, your custom crown is fabricated in a dental lab with high-quality materials for durability and appearance. Once it’s ready, you’ll return to our Houston office so Dr. Ekwem can place it securely with dental cement. A few bite checks and adjustments ensure everything feels just right. We never rush this step. Your comfort and function come first.

Aftercare and Long-Term Results

After your crown is placed, we’ll walk you through easy care tips to keep it looking and functioning exactly as it should. With regular brushing, flossing, and checkups, your new crown can last over a decade or more. We’re always here for follow-ups, questions, or check-ins to make sure you’re thrilled with your results. At Radiant Smiles Dental, we serve smiles for the long term.
