Dental crowns are a versatile solution for restoring and enhancing the appearance and function of your teeth. Whether due to decay, injury, or wear, crowns act as a cap for your natural tooth, protecting it from further damage while maintaining its structure. They are crafted from materials like porcelain, ceramic, or composite resin, which are selected to match the color and durability of your natural teeth. This treatment is ideal for those looking to improve their smile or strengthen a damaged tooth.

Why Should I Get Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are an essential treatment for anyone who wants to restore the strength, functionality, and aesthetics of their teeth. They are particularly beneficial for teeth that have undergone significant decay, fractures, or have had root canal therapy. Crowns provide a protective shell, reducing the risk of further damage, while also improving the overall appearance of your smile. This makes them an invaluable investment for both your oral health and your confidence. Contact our Flower Mound dentist today for more information about our dental crowns!

I highly recommend Dr. Patel. He puts his patients first. Here's why...Dr. Patel, of Fountain Park Dental, came to his office and helped me on New Years Eve 12/31/2024! I am a professional musician and had a show that evening. I had to be at the venue in four hours to play keyboards, and my front top teeth had fallen out. Dr. Patel came into his office and used dental adhesive to remount my temporaries. Thank you SO MUCH Dr. Patel. You are my hero sir!

I had the best experience at Dr. Patel’s office! His staff are incredibly kind, informative, and made my visit so enjoyable. I went in for a 6 month cleaning. Dr Patel took the time to explain to me the best way to remove my impacted wisdom teeth, how the extraction & post-op would go, and was very reassuring about all the concerns I had about my TMJ problems. Not pushy or forceful at all. Please visit here if you are searching for a new dentist! You will not be disappointed.

New practice that takes time to consult with patients about their oral hygiene and the benefits of caring for your teeth so that you can avoid losing them along with the potential high cost of repairing the damage. Looking forward to having the same hygienist every time.

The Benefits Of Dental Crowns
Enhanced Appearance
Dental crowns can dramatically improve the look of teeth that are discolored, misshapen, or otherwise aesthetically displeasing. By covering the entire visible portion of the tooth, crowns offer a way to reshape the smile and choose a color that matches the surrounding teeth, ensuring a natural, uniform appearance.
Long-Term Durability
Crafted from robust materials like porcelain or ceramic, dental crowns are designed to withstand the wear and tear of daily life. With proper care, a crown can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years, or even longer. This makes it a cost-effective solution for dental restoration.
Improved Oral Function
Crowns restore the functionality of damaged teeth, allowing you to enjoy a full range of foods and speak more clearly. They distribute the force of your bite evenly, preventing further wear and tear on your natural teeth and maintaining your overall oral health.
The Dental Crown Treatment Process
Initial Consultation
The first step in getting a dental crown involves a consultation with your dentist. During this visit, Dr. Ronak Patel will examine your teeth, discuss your dental history, and determine whether a crown is the best option. This might include X-rays or molds to accurately assess your tooth’s condition.
Preparing the Tooth
If a crown is deemed necessary, the next step is preparing the tooth. This involves reshaping the tooth under local anesthesia and taking an impression. The impression is then sent to a dental lab where your crown will be made to fit your tooth perfectly and match your other teeth.
Placing the Crown
The final step is the placement of the crown. Once the custom-made crown is ready, you will return to Fountain Park Dental where Dr. Patel will fit and adjust the crown as needed before permanently cementing it in place, ensuring a comfortable and lasting fit.
