Dental Crowns in Garland

A dental crown is a strong ceramic covering for a weakened tooth. The dentist removes the damaged or decayed area of the tooth and replaces it with porcelain to restore strength and appearance. You might need one if you cracked a tooth, broke a filling, or noticed enamel wearing down. Crowns may also be done to improve the look of teeth that have discoloration or are misshapen. Because Dr. Chan uses digital impressions and 3D technology, your crown fits naturally with your bite and feels like it has always belonged there.

Signs You Might Need a Crown

Your tooth may send you signals that it needs help before pain begins. Watch for these common warning signs:

Tooth sensitivity that lingers after hot or cold drinks
Cracks or chips that feel rough on your tongue
Large fillings that loosen or break apart
Discomfort when chewing or biting down
Sometimes there is no sign at all until large decay shows up in an x-ray

Dental Crown Benefits

Crowns protect teeth from further damage and restore strength so you can chew normally again. They improve the shape and appearance of worn or uneven teeth. Many patients also find that crowns boost confidence when they blend seamlessly with natural enamel. By protecting vulnerable teeth, crowns may also help you avoid more invasive treatments in the future.

Materials Used for Dental Crowns

Crowns can be made from different materials, each with unique benefits. At Treat Dental, we select tooth colored materials that combine durability with natural beauty. Depending on your treatment needs, options may include porcelain, zirconia, or 3D printed resin. Porcelain and zirconia are fully ceramic restorations that offer a balance of strength and esthetics. 3D printed resin based crowns offer a more cost effective option. If you prefer old-school gold crowns for back teeth, we also offer these as a premium option.

Digital Impressions for Crowns

Gone are the days of messy impression trays. Instead, we use a wand-like scanner that creates a 3D rendering of your teeth into what we call a digital impression. Our patients think it’s pretty neat to see their digital scan on the computer screen in real-time. The digital impression is either sent to the dental lab for fabrication of your crown or to Dr. Chan’s Exocad software for her to design and mill or 3D print. Digital precision helps us craft crowns that restore function and blend seamlessly into your smile.

What to Expect at Your Visit

When you come in for a crown, you can expect a smooth and straightforward process:

Local anesthetic (numbing) and prep of the tooth for a crown
Digital impression using an intraoral scanner to take the tooth mold
You leave with a temporary crown
The lab or Dr. Chan designs your crown using advanced CAD software
On-site 3D printing or lab partnership creates your restoration
Crown is placed, adjusted, and polished for comfort
In-house milling and custom staining of your restoration

Caring for Your Crown

Dental crowns last longest when you take care of them. Regular brushing and flossing protect the gumline and keep the crown strong. We recommend routine visits so we can check your bite and monitor surrounding teeth. Patients who avoid hard candies, chewing ice, or grinding teeth often see their crowns last for many years. With proper care, your smile investment pays off every day.

I had a great experience at Treat Dental! Everyone was very friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in. They scanned my teeth and showed the images on a monitor right next to my chair, which was really helpful. It was the first time I could actually see what was being described to me instead of just imagining it. Overall, a very pleasant visit — I felt comfortable and well cared for.
