What Is a Cosmetic Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a full-coverage restoration that encases a tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. While crowns are commonly used for restorative purposes, cosmetic crowns are designed with aesthetics as the top priority—seamlessly blending with your natural smile.

Cosmetic crowns are ideal for:

  • Cracked, chipped, or broken teeth
  • Severely worn-down enamel
  • Teeth that are discolored or misshapen
  • Large fillings that weaken tooth structure
  • Covering a dental implant or after root canal therapy
  • Supporting a dental bridge

At MYsmile Dental, we offer all-ceramic and porcelain crowns for the best in strength, function, and lifelike appearance.

Types of Cosmetic Crowns We Offer

Porcelain Crowns

Porcelain crowns provide a natural translucency that closely resembles real enamel. They’re strong, stain-resistant, and ideal for visible front teeth where appearance is critical.

All-Ceramic Crowns

Made from high-strength ceramic materials (like zirconia or lithium disilicate), these crowns offer excellent durability and aesthetics—making them suitable for both front and back teeth.

Benefits of both options include:

  • Metal-free design for a natural look
  • Biocompatible materials for gum health
  • Color-matched to your surrounding teeth
  • Long-lasting results with proper care

We’ll help you choose the crown type that fits your tooth’s location, your aesthetic goals, and your bite function.

What to Expect During Crown Treatment

  1. Consultation & Digital Imaging
    We assess the condition of your tooth and take digital impressions or 3D scans to plan your crown precisely.
  2. Tooth Preparation
    The tooth is gently reshaped to make space for the crown. If needed, we’ll build up the tooth with filling material to ensure a secure fit.
  3. Crown Fabrication
    Your custom crown is designed to match your natural teeth in shape and color. We offer CEREC® same-day crowns for eligible cases, eliminating the need for temporary crowns or a second visit.
  4. Crown Placement
    Once ready, the crown is bonded in place. We make small adjustments for comfort and fit, and ensure your bite feels natural.

Why Choose a Cosmetic Crown?

Unlike older metal or porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns, today’s ceramic and porcelain options deliver:

  • Superior aesthetics with no gray lines
  • Better gum compatibility
  • Long-term durability
  • Natural translucency and color blending
  • Improved confidence and function

Cosmetic crowns can also be part of a larger smile makeover, often paired with veneers, whitening, or orthodontics.

Cosmetic Crowns vs Veneers

If your tooth is structurally damaged, a cosmetic crown offers both protection and cosmetic improvement. If the tooth is healthy but needs cosmetic enhancement, we may recommend veneers instead.

Are cosmetic crowns covered by insurance?

If the crown is needed for structural reasons, insurance may cover part of the cost. Purely cosmetic crowns are usually not covered. We offer electronic insurance submission and in-house financing.

How long do cosmetic crowns last?

With good oral hygiene and regular checkups, ceramic and porcelain crowns can last 10–15 years or more. Insurance typically allows for replacement every 5 years, depending on your plan.

Will the crown look like my natural teeth?

Yes. We color-match and shape your crown to blend seamlessly with the rest of your smile.

Is a crown better than a filling?

If a tooth is heavily damaged or weakened, a crown provides better long-term protection than a large filling.

Is the procedure painful?

No. We use local anesthetic and gentle techniques to make the process comfortable. Some cases are even eligible for same-day crowns to reduce visits.
