Dental Crowns in New Braunfels, TX

Restore Your Smile with Durable, Natural-Looking Crowns

At Smile New Braunfels, Dr. Jim Peck offers high-quality dental crowns in New Braunfels to restore and protect damaged teeth. If you’ve experienced tooth decay, injury, or infection that has weakened your tooth, a crown (also known as a "cap") may be the ideal solution. Crowns cover the entire tooth surface, restoring it to its original shape and strength while improving appearance and functionality.

What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a custom-made, tooth-shaped covering that completely encases a damaged tooth. It is recommended when a tooth is too damaged for a filling or veneer but not compromised enough to require extraction.

Crowns not only restore the look and feel of your natural teeth but also provide long-term protection and durability. Whether caused by trauma, large cavities, or wear over time, crowns are a trusted solution for tooth repair.

Types of Crowns: Why Choose Porcelain?

We offer several types of crowns, but porcelain crowns are the most popular choice among our New Braunfels patients. Porcelain crowns:

  • Blend seamlessly with your natural teeth

  • Are highly durable and stain-resistant

  • Offer a long-lasting, aesthetic solution

  • Can last 10 to 15 years or longer with proper care

Each porcelain crown is carefully crafted to match the size, shape, and color of your existing teeth, helping you maintain a natural, confident smile.

What to Expect: The Crown Procedure

Getting a dental crown in New Braunfels typically involves two visits:

Visit 1: Preparation & Temporary Crown

  • We remove any decay and shape the tooth for a proper crown fit

  • A temporary crown (made of plastic or metal) is placed while your permanent crown is being custom-crafted

Visit 2: Final Crown Placement

  • We remove the temporary crown

  • The final porcelain crown is adjusted for fit and comfort

  • The crown is permanently cemented in place, leaving you with a strong, beautiful tooth

Benefits of Dental Crowns

  • Replace missing or damaged teeth

  • Support fractured or misshapen teeth

  • Restore chewing and bite function

  • Improve the appearance of your smile

  • Provide relief from pain caused by cracks or fractures

  • Protect teeth after root canal treatment

Crown & Bridge Solutions for Complex Dental Needs

In more advanced cases involving trauma, worn teeth, or large failed fillings, crown and bridgework offers a highly reliable and long-term solution. Using high-grade porcelain or porcelain fused to gold, we can restore even the most severely compromised teeth.

If you’re experiencing unexplained pain in back teeth or visible damage in front teeth, our New Braunfels dental team will recommend the best treatment for your needs. Crowns are often the solution when veneers or simple fillings aren't strong enough.
