Learn how our doctors can restore your smile using the latest technological advancements in modern dentistry.
What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a restoration used to protect a broken tooth following trauma or decay, to improve the appearance of a tooth, or to replace a lost tooth when used in conjunction with an implant.
Restore a Weakened Tooth With a Durable Crown Benefits of a Dental Crown
Our dentists can help you avoid more costly treatments in the future by reinforcing a tooth with a dental crown. We can also treat a single missing tooth with a dental implant-supported crown. The benefits a crown provides to your oral health and appearance include:
Repair and Protection
Commonly placed over a tooth following a root canal or to repair a broken tooth, a crown protects a tooth from further damage. There is no substitute for your natural teeth. With prompt treatment with a crown, you can avoid the need for extraction.
Longterm Solution
The medical-grade dental porcelain used to craft your custom crown is engineered to withstand years of normal biting forces. With proper care and regular checkups with our Fort Wayne, IN, dentists, a crown from Harrison Dental Group can provide you with a decade of durable service.
Virtually Invisible Results
Harrison Dental Group works with dental labs that have been vetted for providing only the highest quality restorations. The porcelain that is used to create your crown is not only remarkably strong but is designed to mimic the light-reflecting properties of natural tooth enamel so you can enjoy a restoration that blends seamlessly with your surrounding teeth.

Switched to Harrison Dental with quite a few dental issues. They have been wonderful! I get SO nervous going to dentists, but everyone I’ve dealt with has been kind and really listened to me. They’re conscious of finances and really work with you to make a plan towards better dental health.

My son had a dental procedure done at the Winchester office. He is special needs and the hygenist Jenny and the female dentist (sorry, I can't remember her name) but they both did a great job with him. Quality care!

View on GoogleHow to Protect Your New Dental Crown
Now that your temporary crown has been replaced with a permanent crown, you don't want to do anything to compromise the protection it offers. Our crowns are crafted with medical-grade dental porcelain engineered to withstand years of biting forces, but just like your natural tooth, your crown is not indestructible. Keep up these good habits to maintain the durability of your crown:
Take Caution When Eating
Very hard or sticky foods can damage or dislodge a dental crown. Patients can eat and drink virtually anything with a crown but should still be cautious while consuming certain foods, like caramel or taffy.
Continue to Practice Good Dental Hygiene
You can care for your new dental crown just like you care for your natural teeth. Continue to brush your teeth and floss every day to avoid plaque buildup and potential cavities.
Avoid Abrasive Toothpaste
Since your dental crown is not made with natural enamel, it can be susceptible to erosion from abrasive toothpaste. Choose non-abrasive toothpastes to keep your crown looking shiny and new.
Avoid Bad Habits
Certain bad habits, like biting your nails or opening items with your teeth, can compromise your porcelain crown. If you grind your teeth at night, wear a nightguard to avoid breaking the crown.
Regular Dental Visits
Continue to visit our Fort Wayne, IN, dentists for biannual dental exams. During a regular cleaning, your dentist can make sure the existing crown is holding up and that no new dental concerns have arisen.
Cedric's Story
Cedric had some anxiety about visiting the dentist, so his wife recommended Harrison Dental Group. Cedric's experience was pain-free and positive, and he was relaxed by Dr. Keith J. Harrison's chairside manner and the team's stellar customer service. Thanks to his crown and bridgework, Cedric can smile confidently.
