Dental Crowns
A broken, decayed, or infected tooth can lead to painful side effects and may even require extraction without treatment.
Our dentists can repair tooth damage and improve the appearance of your smile with natural-looking porcelain crowns.
Why do patients in Layton, Murray, Lehi, and Bountiful, UT, choose our practice for dental crowns?
What Do Porcelain Crowns Look Like?
Dental crowns are tooth-shaped caps that cover the entire outer layer of a damaged tooth. They are made from strong, enamel-colored porcelain designed to protect your teeth from future damage.
While crowns can be made of a variety of substances, we find that porcelain produces the best cosmetic and functional results. Our crowns look virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth.
Do I Need A Dental Crown?
Porcelain dental crowns serve many purposes in both cosmetic and restorative dentistry. We often recommend porcelain crowns to patients in Bountiful, Layton, Murray, and Lehi for the following reasons:
Supporting a weakened tooth structure or a tooth with a large filling
Anchoring bridgework to adjacent teeth
Restoring the appearance of misshapen, chipped, or discolored teeth
Capping and sealing a tooth after a root canal
Fixing malocclusion, or a bad bite
Dental crowns can even replace missing teeth!
Restore Your Smile and Oral Health
With Implant-Supported Crowns
While traditional dental crowns protect a damaged tooth, implant-supported crowns will actually replace a missing tooth altogether. Implant-supported crowns do more than just fill the gap in your smile. The dental implants act like tooth roots, preventing jawbone recession, maintaining your facial appearance, and securely supporting crowns. Several dentists at our Utah offices have training in dental implants and will be happy to discuss your candidacy at your next appointment.

My dentist Dr. Blume took great care of me. I had fillings and a temporary crown put in recently. He was very personable and made sure to check on me after my appointment. I made a follow-up appointment to adjust my bite because of my crown. Andrea helped to reshape and polish my crown. She did an excellent job and addressed my concerns with care. I can tell she is detail oriented and personable. Overall, great experience!

Maintaining Your Porcelain Crown
Caring for porcelain crowns is actually quite easy. By following these simple tips, you can keep your restoration strong and functional for the next decade or more...
Be Mindful Of What You Eat
Avoid eating especially hard or sticky foods or chewing ice. These activities can damage and dislodge your dental crown.
Practice Good Oral Hygiene
Make sure to practice good oral hygiene with regular brushing and flossing, just like you do for your natural teeth. Use a non-abrasive toothpaste to prevent scratching the porcelain.
Attend Regular Check-Ups
During your biannual dental exam at our offices in Bountiful, Layton, Murray, and Lehi, our dentists can make sure that your crown is in good condition and providing the necessary protection.
Minimize Wear
Patients that suffer from bruxism (teeth grinding) should consider wearing a night guard to avoid wearing down their dental crown. You should also refrain from habits like opening packages with your teeth and biting your nails.
