Dental crowns that work for you

At Jacobs Dental Group, our goal is to provide you with treatments that address your concerns and give you beautiful results. There are several types of dental crowns, each with their own advantages.

Gold crowns

Gold crowns are strong, long-lasting, and extremely resistant to wear and tear.

PMF crowns

Porcelain Fused-to-Metal (PMF) crowns are exactly as they sound. They have a metal structure with a porcelain fused exterior, combining the aesthetic and practical benefits of porcelain and metal.

Porcelain crowns

Porcelain crowns are biocompatible and metal-free, making them a wonderful choice for patients with metal allergies. They also look completely natural and can be customized to perfectly match the shape and color of your other teeth.

Zirconia crowns

Zirconia crowns are exceptionally strong and resistant to damage and look just like real teeth. They’re also convenient, as they can be cut and shaped in-office.

  • Protect worn-down or weak teeth

Dental Crowns FAQs

What are dental crowns?

Dental crowns are tooth-shaped caps made from a variety of materials that are used to restore damaged or decayed teeth.

Does it hurt to have a crown placed?

At Jacobs Dental Group, your comfort is of the utmost importance. We use topical numbing agents and local anesthetic to help provide a pain-free experience. After the procedure, you may feel some sensitivity or discomfort, but it should subside in just a few days. Over time, dental crowns can help minimize sensitivity and promote long-term oral health.

How long do dental crowns last?

The longevity of your dental crown will depend both on the materials used as well as how well they are cared for. In general, crowns can last anywhere between 10-30 years with proper maintenance.

How do I take care of my dental crown?

Dental crowns can be cared for just like any other tooth. Practice daily at-home care by brushing and flossing and be sure to visit our office twice a year for professional cleanings and exams.
