Dental Crowns
Most dentistry looks like dentistry. Our goal is to provide dentistry that is undetectable. We replace existing dental crowns and fillings with restorations that look and feel like your natural teeth.
When damage to a person’s tooth is too severe for a composite filling and not quite severe enough for the tooth to be removed, a dental crown may be the perfect answer, we use a very strong form of Porcelain called Zirconia to make the smile appear and function “as new.” We are renowned for the quality of our work and the fantastic changes we make for people using this technology. These treatments are used for a long-lasting correction of major dental problems. With proper home care and regularly schedule dental hygiene visits dental crowns can last for years to come!
How Long Does it Take to Fit a Dental Crown?
Fitting a crown requires at least two visits to our office. Initially, we will remove decay, shape the tooth, and fit it with a temporary crown.
On the subsequent visit, we will remove the temporary crown and then fit and adjust the final crown. Finally, we will cement the crown into place and you have a new beautiful looking tooth.
Key Benefits of Dental Crowns

What Are the Capabilites of Crowns?
Crown and bridgework is a very reliable solution for major dental problems caused through accidents, diseases or wear and tear. Major problems can usually be corrected using these techniques. Dr. Frenchman uses one of the strongest forms of porcelain available to the dental community called Zirconia, this is used to ensure a strong, natural looking product that provides beautiful, long lasting results for our patients. Where accidental damage has occurred, resulting in lost teeth, or where teeth have broken away through excessive wear, or as the result of old fillings breaking, dental crowns and/or dental bridges can be used as a long-term solution.
