PORCELAIN VENEERS & CROWNS IN CEDAR PARK
Reveal Dental offers porcelain crowns for many Cedar Park patients that look and match the color of regular teeth. A dental crown covers your tooth to protect, strengthen and restore its shape and size.
Dental crowns are used for various purposes, including:
- Restoring a tooth after a root canal
- Restoring a tooth that has suffered trauma
- Protecting and restoring a broken tooth or decayed tooth with a large filling
- Covering misshapen or severely discolored teeth for cosmetic purposes
Porcelain crowns provide a more natural looking color match than any other crown type, and are strong, stable, and durable. They are often the best option for people with metal allergies or teeth that need to withstand strong biting stress, grinding and clenching.
To prepare your tooth for a porcelain crown, Dr. Sura will numb the tooth and surrounding tissues and then shape your tooth to make room for the crown. If needed, he will also use a filling material to build up the tooth to support the crown. After reshaping the tooth, he will take impressions of the tooth to make sure that the crown fits perfectly.
Milled porcelain crowns require no messy putty impressions and are digitally constructed in Dr. Sura’s office using CEREC technology. They are carved out of a ceramic block using a CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) system and are fabricated and inserted in just one visit.
Porcelain Veneers in Cedar Park
While a crown covers the entire tooth, the procedure for a porcelain veneer involves placing a thin, sculpted veneer that is placed on the front of the tooth.
Porcelain veneers offer a beautiful, long-lasting alternative to porcelain crowns with less loss of natural tooth structure. Veneers can transform the color, shape, size, or length of your teeth and drastically improve their appearance.
Veneers are often used to repair:
- Discolored or stained teeth
- Teeth that are worn down, chipped or broken
- Crooked, uneven, or irregularly shaped teeth
- Gaps between teeth
After a thorough exam and evaluation of your teeth, Dr. Sura will discuss your porcelain veneer and crown options and help you decide which type of restoration will best fit your needs.

DENTAL CROWNS IN CEDAR PARK
A tooth that has been damaged by decay or trauma may need a dental crown to protect, strengthen and improve its appearance. A crown is a durable, realistic looking covering that is custom-made to fit over your entire tooth. Dental crowns have traditionally been fabricated in a dental laboratory, but with technological advances in dentistry, you can now avoid the hassle of multiple office visits getting same-day dental crowns in our Cedar Park practice.
How it Works
Dr. Sura will complete a thorough exam of damaged teeth to determine if a same-day crown is right for you. Your tooth is prepared just as it would be for a traditional crown that is fabricated in a lab. To prepare your tooth for a same-day CEREC crown, Dr. Sura will numb the tooth and surrounding tissues and then shape your tooth to make room for the crown. If needed, he will also use a filling material to build up the tooth to support the crown.
Once your tooth is prepared for the dental crown, impressions are taken with a digital sensor, using state-of-the-art CEREC CAD/CAM technology, allowing you to avoid the hassle of having to deal with gooey traditional impression materials.
Special 3-D software is then used to convert the impression into a digital model that is used to create your crown using a CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) system. The Planmill machine mills the dental crown. Once the crown is fabricated, Dr. Sura will try it in to make sure it fits perfectly, cement the crown, and you will be ready to go with your permanent restoration in just one office visit to our Reveal Dental Cedar Park location.
