What is a dental crown?
A dental crown is a custom-made restoration that covers and strengthens a damaged or weakened tooth while also enhancing its appearance and functionality.
While individuals of all ages may seek dental crowns, they are particularly common among adults. Younger adults often opt for cosmetic crowns for aesthetic reasons, while restorative crowns are relevant to adults of all ages for addressing various dental issues.

We offer a range of crown and bridge solutions to address various dental needs. Whether you require an implant crown to replace a missing tooth or a dental bridge to fill gaps, our expert team ensures that your treatment is tailored to your unique requirements.

Dental Bridges

Is a crown right for me?
Dental crowns are sought by individuals of all age groups, with adults being the primary candidates. While younger adults often seek cosmetic crowns for their aesthetic appeal, restorative crowns are beneficial for addressing dental concerns in adults of all ages. Dental Crowns can help with the following:
Protect and strengthen a weakened tooth
Restore the shape and size of damaged teeth
Enhance the tooth’s appearance, color, and alignment
Extend the life of your teeth by offering durability and longevity

“I can’t say enough great things about this dentistry! The doctor is incredible at explaining everything about oral health and teeth care, and she ensures you’re comfortable and well informed during every visit. A special shoutout to Vicky, the best hygienist ever—she’s not only meticulous but also the sweetest person! I never thought I’d look forward to going to the dentist, but this team has completely changed that for me. Every visit is a great experience, and I always leave feeling cared for and confident in my smile!”
“If you’re looking for a place to call home for dental care, THIS IS IT! I had such an amazing and pleasant experience with my routine cleaning here. The office was very clean. Vickie and the Dr. Williams were all amazing. They gave great recommendations and explained things. I had no wait time and they were very efficient during my visit. The entire staff was masked up and they took great sanitary precautions. One of my best ever dental office experiences by far!”
“Staying calm during a visit to the dentist is difficult for me, but visits at Waverly are the exception! This place is GORGEOUS, the environment is calm and relaxed, and every single one of the staff I have interacted with makes the experience 100X better! I have never had a better, more comfortable, dental experience and I would recommend any and all to this office. They educate you on why a healthy mouth leads to a healthy body and how to maintain a healthy oral hygiene routine. I will be sticking with Waverly Dental as long as I am in the area! Thank you, Waverly!”

Frequently Asked Questions
You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers
Don’t see the answer you’re looking for?
Should I get a crown or have my tooth pulled?
Whenever possible, we recommend preserving your natural teeth. While extraction may seem cost-effective, it often leads to more extensive dental work. Our team can guide you in making the best choice for your dental health.
Should I get a bridge or an implant?
Choosing between a bridge and an implant depends on various factors, including the condition of neighboring teeth and your overall oral health. We recommend implants as a better solution if only a tooth needs fixing. This is to prevent problems from happening to neighboring healthy teeth.
How much does a crown cost?
Crown costs can vary based on your specific treatment plan. For accurate pricing information, please contact our team or schedule a restorative consultation; we’ll gladly assist you.
Are crowns covered by insurance?
Yes, dental crowns are covered by most insurance plans. If you don’t have dental insurance, we offer financing solutions that don’t require a hard credit check, making them accessible to patients with less-than-perfect credit. Our partners are willing to work with you to find a good plan.
How long do porcelain crowns last?
With proper care and hygiene, porcelain crowns can last 20 to 25 years or even longer. Regular dental check-ups and maintenance will help ensure their longevity.
Does Waverly offer same-day crowns?
While we don’t provide same-day crowns, we offer temporary crowns to maintain your smile’s functionality. Additionally, we have expedited restoration options for your convenience. Call our practice for more details.
What is the aftercare for my crown?
After receiving your crown, you can care for it like a natural tooth. Brush and floss daily to maintain regular oral hygiene. If you have any questions about aftercare, please refer to our aftercare page or contact us for guidance.
Is there a difference between cosmetic and restorative crowns?
There is no significant difference between cosmetic and restorative crowns in terms of functionality. However, they differ in terms of the time spent on aesthetics, as cosmetic crowns take more time. Restorative crowns are often recommended for teeth that are not fully visible or when quick repair is essential. Patients seeking cosmetic improvements may also consider veneers as an alternative option.
