Are you dealing with a severely damaged, weakened, or aesthetically compromised tooth? At Park Smiles NYC, our specialists provide exceptional dental crown restorations using advanced materials and precise techniques. Experience comprehensive tooth restoration with durable, natural-looking results at our sophisticated Manhattan practice.
A dental crown is a custom-crafted restoration that completely encases a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Often referred to as a “cap,” this tooth-shaped covering is permanently cemented over the entire visible portion of a tooth above the gumline, effectively becoming the tooth’s new outer surface.
Modern dental crowns are typically made from high-quality ceramic materials like porcelain, zirconia, or lithium disilicate that closely mimic the translucency, color, and light-reflecting properties of natural tooth enamel. For teeth requiring maximum strength, especially molars with heavy biting forces, options may include full zirconia or porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns that combine aesthetic appearance with exceptional durability.
The primary purpose of a crown is to restore a tooth that cannot be effectively repaired with more conservative treatments like fillings. By completely covering the compromised tooth structure, crowns provide comprehensive protection while reestablishing proper function and aesthetics. This full-coverage design distributes biting forces evenly across the tooth, preventing further damage and often extending the lifespan of severely compromised teeth that might otherwise require extraction.
At Park Smiles NYC, our Manhattan specialists custom-design each crown to complement your unique dental anatomy and facial characteristics, ensuring restorations that not only function flawlessly but also blend seamlessly with your natural teeth for an undetectably restored smile.
Restore damaged teeth with premium dental crowns. Our Manhattan specialists provide durable, natural-looking restorations with exceptional fit.
At Park Smiles NYC in Carnegie Hill, we have extensive experience customizing porcelain crowns and other cosmetic and restorative dental solutions for patients who are unhappy with their smiles. Along with the aesthetic advantages, these inconspicuous restorations provide many other benefits, including:
When you and your dentist at Park Smiles NYC decide that getting a crown is the right option for you, the dentist will shape the tooth in a shape that enables him or her to place a crown. Depending on the damage of the tooth and how much tooth structure is present, your dentist will either shape the tooth or build up the tooth in order to support the crown. A digital impression will then be taken so our dental laboratory can custom make a cap for your tooth.
Although receiving a crown normally takes two visits to complete, Park Smiles NYC is pleased to offer CEREC® CAD-CAM technology, which allows us to complete your crown in a single visit, while you wait! When the crown is ready to place, your dentist will try on the crown to ensure that the fit and bite are correct. The porcelain crown is then cemented to your tooth to give you a beautiful and natural appearance.
With care, porcelain crowns can be very durable and have the ability to last a long time. Your dentist at Park Smiles NYC will give you special instructions on how you can keep your crown clean with brushing and flossing so that you can help your crown last for years.
The cost of dental crowns in NYC ranges from $1,131 to $2,994 per crown. Our NYC practice’s UCR price for a dental crown is $2,994. Insurance coverage reduces this cost for many patients. In New York City, Ameritas covers crowns at $1,334, BCBS at $1,131, Careington at $2,395.20, Cigna at $1,981, Delta Dental at $1,600, DHA at $1,930, and Metlife at $1,794. During your consultation at our NYC office, we will provide a detailed cost breakdown and create a payment plan that fits your budget.
Porcelain crowns can help both children and adults repair damaged teeth, restoring their confidence and oral health. You may benefit from porcelain crowns in Carnegiee Hill if you suffer from any of the following dental concerns:
Crowns are often used to cover teeth with decay after receiving a filling. However, there are limits to how much decay a tooth can have and still be suitable for a crown. If the decay is severe and affects most of the tooth, extraction might be recommended instead of a crown. In cases where a tooth needs to be extracted due to severe decay, it can often be replaced with a dental implant capped with a porcelain crown.
When teeth are cracked or chipped, crowns offer protection against further damage or infection. While crowns are a common solution, other options, such as bonding and veneers, can also restore chipped or cracked teeth to their normal appearance. Your dentist will discuss your dental concerns to determine the best treatment plan for you.
Severe tooth discoloration or stains can be effectively covered with dental crowns, enhancing the aesthetics of your smile. Carnegiee Hill porcelain crowns are also ideal for discolored teeth that do not respond to whitening treatments.
If you have missing teeth, a porcelain crown placed on a dental implant can renew the function and appearance of your teeth. This procedure requires healthy gums and enough bone structure to support the implant. The crown is designed to match your natural tooth in color, shape, and size, ensuring a natural-looking smile.
While many believe porcelain crowns are only a cosmetic enhancement, they also offer several oral health benefits, including the following:
Individuals with extensive tooth damage often experience tooth sensitivity, feeling mild to severe pain when exposed to hot and cold temperatures. Teeth grinding can lead to enamel degradation over time. Erosion may even occur due to acidic foods, drinks, or acid reflux. When the nerves of the teeth are exposed, discomfort becomes inevitable. Porcelain crowns provide a protective shield over the nerves, alleviating the pain.
Teeth that have been chipped or fractured due to injury are at risk of further damage when biting or chewing. Large fillings can also weaken teeth by removing a significant portion of the original tooth structure. Dental crowns help protect these vulnerable teeth, preventing them from deteriorating further.
Teeth covered with crowns are less vulnerable to decay. Porcelain crowns are resistant to acids produced by dental plaque, making it easier to keep your restoration intact. While proper oral hygiene is still essential to prevent decay under the crown, the overall risk is significantly reduced.
Your porcelain crowns will be designed to function and feel like natural teeth. This extends to how you care for your new restorations. However, following the steps below can help extend the lifespan of your crowns:
At Park Smiles NYC, our dental specialists will ensure you receive care and support before, during, and after your treatment. If you have any questions about how to care for your restoration, call our office without delay.
At Park Smiles NYC, your dental crown treatment is provided by our restorative specialists with advanced training in complex restoration techniques and materials. Our dentists Dr. Ritu Patel, Dr. Krystle Kendall, and Dr. Shari Ginsburg bring comprehensive expertise in crown procedures, combining technical precision with aesthetic vision for truly exceptional results.
What distinguishes our Manhattan approach to dental crowns is our commitment to creating restorations that seamlessly blend with your natural dentition while providing optimal function and longevity. Our specialists maintain extensive continuing education specifically focused on advanced restorative materials and techniques, ensuring that your treatment incorporates the latest innovations in dental crown technology.
Our collaborative approach begins with detailed consultation to understand your specific concerns and expectations. Using comprehensive examination and appropriate imaging, our specialists evaluate your current dental condition and develop personalized treatment plans that address both functional requirements and aesthetic goals. Throughout the crown process, we maintain meticulous attention to detail—from conservative preparation design to precise shade matching and occlusal adjustment—ensuring exceptional results that enhance both your oral health and smile appearance.
Our Manhattan practice brings specialized knowledge to crown restorations that exceeds what’s available at many general dental offices. Our dentists’ focused training in complex restorative procedures ensures comprehensive understanding of biomechanical principles and material science essential for optimal crown outcomes. This expertise translates to more sophisticated preparation designs, appropriate material selection for your specific functional needs, and precision techniques that maximize both durability and aesthetics. For patients seeking premium crown treatment, this specialized knowledge ensures truly exceptional results rather than the standardized approach used in many practices.
We utilize advanced digital technology throughout the crown process, from initial planning through final verification. Our Manhattan office employs detailed imaging systems, digital impression scanning, and virtual design capabilities that enhance precision and efficiency. This technology-enhanced approach allows for more conservative preparation, superior crown fit, and potentially fewer adjustments during the delivery appointment. The digital workflow also enables better communication with our ceramic laboratories, ensuring your final restoration meets our exacting specifications for marginal integrity, contact relationships, and occlusal harmony.
The aesthetic quality of dental crowns depends significantly on both material selection and artistic execution. Our Manhattan practice utilizes only premium ceramic systems that provide optimal optical properties and proven durability. We partner exclusively with master-level ceramists who specialize in high-end crown fabrication, utilizing multi-layering techniques and detailed characterization that create exceptional realism. This dedication to material quality and craftsmanship ensures your crown displays the subtle variations in color, translucency, and surface texture that distinguish truly premium restorations from basic alternatives.
With proper care and maintenance, quality dental crowns typically last 10-15 years or longer. Factors affecting longevity include material selection, oral habits, bite forces, and maintenance practices. The latest generation of dental ceramics offers exceptional durability while maintaining superior aesthetics. To maximize crown lifespan, we recommend wearing a nightguard if you have grinding habits, avoiding using your teeth as tools or biting extremely hard objects, maintaining excellent oral hygiene, and attending regular professional evaluations. During your consultation at our Manhattan office, we discuss specific longevity considerations for your unique situation and how different material options might influence the expected service life of your restoration.
With modern techniques and materials, most patients experience minimal discomfort during the crown process. The preparation appointment involves local anesthesia that ensures complete comfort while your tooth is being shaped. Some patients experience mild sensitivity for a few days following preparation, typically managed effectively with over-the-counter analgesics if needed. Our precise temporary crown fabrication helps protect your prepared tooth and minimize sensitivity during the interim period. The final crown delivery rarely involves significant discomfort, with most patients reporting that their restored tooth feels natural within a few days as they adjust to the new contours. Our Manhattan team provides detailed aftercare instructions and remains available to address any concerns during the adjustment period.
Crowns and veneers represent different approaches to tooth restoration, with distinct indications and characteristics. Crowns provide complete coverage of the entire visible portion of the tooth, requiring more significant reshaping of the natural tooth structure but offering maximum protection for extensively damaged or weakened teeth. Veneers cover only the front surface and minimal wrapping onto the biting edge, preserving more natural tooth structure but providing less structural reinforcement. While veneers are primarily aesthetic enhancements for otherwise healthy teeth, crowns address both structural and aesthetic concerns. During your consultation at our Manhattan practice, our specialists thoroughly discuss whether a crown or more conservative veneer would be most appropriate for your specific situation based on the extent of damage, functional requirements, and aesthetic goals.
