Dental Crowns in Greenwood, IN

A dental crown is a custom-shaped cap that covers a damaged tooth from the gum line up, restoring its original size, shape, and strength. Crowns protect teeth weakened by large cavities, fractures, or root canal therapy and are cemented in place for long-term function. Materials include porcelain, ceramic, zirconia, and porcelain fused to metal—each chosen based on tooth location, bite forces, and appearance goals.

• A tooth with a large cavity that cannot be restored with a filling alone.
• A cracked or fractured tooth that needs full-coverage protection.
• After root canal therapy to prevent the treated tooth from breaking.
• A worn, weakened, or eroded tooth that has lost significant structure.
• To complete a dental implant with a natural-looking restoration.
• Replacement of an old, failing crown.

• Restores full chewing strength to a weakened tooth.
• Protects remaining tooth structure from further damage.
• Natural-looking materials that match surrounding teeth.
• Durable—well-maintained crowns last many years.
• Custom fit for comfortable, balanced biting.

Traditional crowns involve two visits: the first to prepare the tooth, take impressions, and place a temporary crown; the second to bond the permanent crown. Same-day crowns use digital scanning and in-office milling to complete everything in one appointment. Either way, local anesthesia keeps you comfortable, and aftercare instructions are provided before you leave.
