What is Dental Crown?
Dental crowns are fixed prosthetic restorations that cover the entire damaged or aesthetically insufficient tooth, reshaping and strengthening it. Zirconium, e.max full ceramic, metal-supported porcelain, or monolithic materials are selected based on the tooth’s position, occlusal force, and aesthetic expectations.
At Dentasay Oral and Dental Health Clinic, the entire crown process consists of digital smile design, intraoral scanning, CAD/CAM production, multi-layer coloring, and precise cementation steps; thus, the biological width is preserved while achieving a natural tooth appearance.
Why Should I Choose Dental Crown?
- Protects the tooth against fracture like a shield in large cavities
- Restores discolored or malformed teeth to a natural appearance
- Significantly extends the lifespan of root canal-treated teeth
- Reduces sensitivity by distributing chewing forces evenly
- Completes aesthetics and function in implant-supported restorations
Offers reliable solutions from single tooth to full mouth rehabilitations.
Am I a Suitable Candidate for Dental Crown?
- Teeth with advanced substance loss that cannot retain fillings
- Posterior teeth requiring support after root canal treatment
- Anterior aesthetic cases with shape/color mismatch
- Individuals wanting to protect worn teeth due to bruxism
- Patients planned for fixed crowns on implants
During examination, gum health, occlusal relationship, and smile expectations are analyzed to create a personalized plan.
Advantages of Dental Crown
- Provides natural tooth appearance and high durability

In Which Cases Is Dental Crown Applied?
- In cases of large substance loss of a single tooth/after root canal treatment
- As a bridge abutment in areas with missing teeth
- In single crown or hybrid prosthesis plans on implants
- In aesthetic cases where full coverage is preferred instead of laminate
How Does the Dental Crown Treatment Process Proceed?
- Digital impression, panoramic X-ray, and smile design mock-up
- Minimally invasive preparation and temporary crown placement
- CAD/CAM milling or laboratory casting
- Try-in, occlusion adjustment, and staining

How Long Does a Dental Crown Last?
With quality materials, use of a night guard, and regular professional care, dental crowns can be used trouble-free for 12-15 years or even longer. Polishing and check-ups twice a year prevent minor fit issues from growing.

Who can get dental crowns?
Adults with significant tooth substance loss, color mismatch, fractures, or wear; patients with root canal-treated teeth and implant-supported teeth can benefit from crowns. Those with active gum disease undergo periodontal treatment first.
How is the dental crown procedure performed?
After examination, the tooth is minimally reduced under local anesthesia, digital impressions are taken, and a temporary crown is placed. The permanent crown produced in the laboratory is tried in, and after color/occlusion adjustment, it is cemented.
Is dental crown painful?
Since the procedure is performed under local anesthesia, no pain is felt. Slight sensitivity may occur after preparation; temporary crowns and recommended desensitizing products ensure a comfortable period.
How long do dental crowns last?
With regular care, night guards, and professional check-ups, crowns can last 10-15 years. Controlling excessive force and bad habits further extends their lifespan.
How many days does dental crown treatment take?
A single crown is usually completed in 3-5 business days, while comprehensive smile makeovers are completed in 5-7 business days. If implant or gum procedures are needed, the timeline is shared with the patient.
What are the advantages of dental crowns?
- Simultaneous improvement of aesthetics and function
- Long-lasting, durable materials
- Precise fit with digital production
- Can be integrated into smile design packages
How should post-crown care be?
Brushing twice a day, using interdental brushes/floss, avoiding biting hard foods with front teeth, wearing a night guard, and visiting the dentist every six months help crowns last long.
