Restorative Dentistry That Looks at the Whole Smile.
Crowns help protect and restore teeth that need more support than a simple repair can provide. Cole Family Dentistry works with a dental lab to create the final restoration and may use a temporary crown while the permanent one is being completed.
We will explain why a crown or bridge is being recommended, what alternatives may exist and what to expect during the process so you can make an informed decision.

What to Expect with a Crown
Crown treatment commonly involves preparing the tooth, placing a temporary restoration and returning for the final crown after it is completed by the dental lab. Your specific plan may vary.
Your comfort matters here.
Cole Family Dentistry is still a dental office—not a spa—but we intentionally create a calm, welcoming environment. Tell us if you are anxious or sensitive. Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is available and may be appropriate for some patients and procedures.
