Dental Crowns in Haymarket, VA

Dental crowns are recommended when a tooth is too damaged or weakened to be restored with a filling alone. They’re often used after a root canal, to repair a cracked or broken tooth, or to protect a tooth with a large cavity. Crowns can also restore dental implants or support a bridge. By fully covering the tooth, a crown provides strength, protection, and long-lasting function while also improving your smile’s appearance.

How will I know if a dental crown needs to be repaired or replaced?

You may need a crown repaired or replaced if it becomes loose, cracked, or causes discomfort. Signs to watch for include pain when biting down, sensitivity, or visible wear. In some cases, the underlying tooth may develop decay at the edges of the crown. During routine checkups, we’ll examine your crown closely to ensure it’s still secure and recommend repair or replacement if needed to protect your oral health.

Do dental crowns look natural?

Modern dental crowns are designed to look very natural. Tooth-colored materials, such as porcelain or ceramic, can be matched to the exact shade of your surrounding teeth, blending seamlessly with your smile. Custom dental crowns not only restore function but also enhance appearance, making them virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth. Whether you’re restoring a front tooth or a back tooth, crowns can provide both durability and an attractive, lifelike finish.

Are dental crowns covered by insurance?

Many dental insurance plans cover at least part of the cost of a crown, especially when it’s needed for restorative reasons like decay, a broken tooth, or after a root canal. However, coverage amounts vary, and some policies may only cover certain materials. Our team will review your benefits, explain your coverage, and provide a cost estimate before treatment. We also offer flexible financing options and a dental membership plan to help make crowns more affordable for uninsured and underinsured patients.
