When a tooth is damaged or weakened, it can impact both your oral health and the confidence in your smile.

Whether you're addressing a cracked tooth, severe decay, or need a crown after a root canal, our team is dedicated to providing personalized, effective care.
What Are Dental Crowns?
A dental crown is a custom-made restoration that fits over a damaged tooth, restoring its shape, size, and functionality. Crowns are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, offering both durability and aesthetics.
Common reasons for needing a dental crown include:
- Repairing a cracked or fractured tooth.
- Protecting a tooth after a root canal.
- Restoring a tooth with large cavities that cannot be fixed with fillings.
- Enhancing the appearance of misshapen or severely discolored teeth.
- Serving as an anchor for a dental bridge.
At Mesquite Dental, we use top-quality materials such as porcelain or ceramic to create crowns that are durable and natural-looking.

The Dental Crown Process
- Comprehensive Consultation
During your first visit, Dr. Karley Schneider or Dr. Cole Younger will assess your oral health and determine if a crown is the right solution for you. - Tooth Preparation
The damaged tooth is gently shaped to make room for the crown, and we use state-of-the-art 3D CT scanning to create precise digital impressions. - Custom Fabrication
Your crown is crafted in a dental lab to ensure a perfect fit and natural appearance. - Final Placement
Once your crown is ready, it is securely bonded to your tooth, restoring its function and aesthetics.
