When a tooth is cracked, worn down, or weakened by a large filling, a dental crown can restore its strength, shape, and function. At Lake Magdalene Dental, Dr. Mateen Sheikh and our team craft custom crowns for patients throughout the Lake Magdalene area, including N Florida Ave, N Dale Mabry Hwy, and surrounding communities. As an independent, family-owned practice with a 5.0-star Google rating from 210+ patient reviews, we focus on comfortable, unhurried care and crowns that look and feel like your natural teeth.
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over a tooth to restore its size, shape, and strength while covering it completely down to the gum line. Crowns are commonly recommended for teeth that are fractured, badly decayed, worn from grinding, or that need protection after a root canal. They are also used to top a dental implant or anchor a bridge. According to the ADA’s MouthHealthy resource, restorations like crowns help preserve a natural tooth so it can keep doing its job for years to come.
Crowns can be made from several materials, including all-ceramic and porcelain for a natural, tooth-colored look, or metal and porcelain-fused-to-metal for added durability. Dr. Sheikh will help you choose the material that best fits the location of the tooth, your bite, and your goals. Protecting a weakened tooth with a crown often helps you avoid more involved treatment later, and keeping up with regular checkups and good home care supports the long-term health of your restored tooth.

How long do dental crowns last?
With good oral hygiene and regular dental visits, many crowns last for years. Longevity depends on factors like the material, the tooth’s location, your bite, and habits such as grinding. Dr. Sheikh will share care tips to help your crown last.
Is getting a crown uncomfortable?
We take a gentle approach and use local anesthetic to keep you comfortable during treatment. Some patients notice mild sensitivity for a short time afterward, which typically eases as the tooth settles.
