A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over your existing tooth. It restores the tooth’s shape, size, and strength while looking completely natural. Think of it as a protective helmet for a damaged tooth. Crowns are one of the most reliable and long-lasting restorations in dentistry.

The Crown Process at Crystal Lake Dental
Consultation + Digital Scan
We examine the tooth, take digital X-rays, and capture a 3D impression with our iTero scanner. No goopy molds. We’ll discuss the best crown material for your situation.
Prep + Temporary Crown
We gently reshape the tooth to make room for the crown and place a comfortable temporary. Your custom crown is fabricated at a top dental lab (or milled same-day with CEREC).
Permanent Placement
We remove the temporary, check the fit and color match of your permanent crown, and bond it securely in place. You’ll leave with a tooth that looks and feels natural.
Damaged tooth? Let’s fix it before it gets worse.

Dental Crown FAQs
How long do dental crowns last?
With proper care, dental crowns typically last 10 to 15 years. Some patients keep their crowns for 20+ years with good oral hygiene, regular checkups, and avoiding habits like chewing ice.
Does getting a dental crown hurt?
No. We use local anesthesia to completely numb the area. Most patients feel zero pain during the procedure. Some mild sensitivity for a few days afterward is normal and resolves quickly.
Are same-day crowns available?
Yes. We offer CEREC same-day crowns for many cases. Your crown is designed, milled, and placed in a single visit using our in-office technology. No temporary crown, no second appointment.
How much does a dental crown cost?
Dental crowns at Crystal Lake Dental range from $1,200 to $1,800 depending on the material. We offer financing through CareCredit and Cherry, with monthly payments as low as $50.
Does insurance cover dental crowns?
Most dental insurance plans cover crowns at approximately 50% after your deductible. We verify your benefits before treatment and file all claims on your behalf. HSA and FSA funds are accepted.
How do I care for my dental crown?
Treat it like a natural tooth. Brush twice daily, floss around the crown every day, and keep up with regular checkups. Avoid chewing ice, hard candy, or other hard objects to extend the life of your crown.
