What is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over an existing tooth to restore its shape, size, and strength. Crowns are used for teeth that are:
Cracked or fractured
Severely worn down
Broken or weakened after large fillings
Treated with a root canal
Misshapen or severely discolored
At Horizons Dental Care, we craft crowns from high-quality materials like porcelain, zirconia, and ceramic, ensuring a strong, natural-looking result that matches the rest of your smile.

The Dental Crown Process at Horizons Dental Care
Your crown treatment typically involves two appointments.
During your first visit, we prepare the tooth by removing any damaged areas and shaping it for a proper crown fit. We then take detailed digital impressions and place a temporary crown to protect your tooth while your permanent crown is crafted.
At your second appointment, we carefully fit and bond your permanent crown, making precise adjustments to ensure it feels comfortable and natural. Your bite and smile will be fully restored before you leave our office.
When Is a Dental Crown Recommended?
You might need a crown if you:
Have a large cavity that cannot be filled
Recently had a root canal
Want to cover a dental implant
Need to attach a dental bridge

We will walk you through your options during your consultation and create a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
