Dental Crowns
At our San Antonio, TX, practice, dentist Joseph Perry offers custom tooth crowns to restore health, function, and beauty to your smile.
Dental Crowns
Restore and Protect Damaged Teeth
A dental crown, sometimes referred to as a cap, fits over an entire tooth so that, once the crown is cemented in place, it permanently protects the tooth at and above the gum line.
Whether you need to repair a large cavity, protect a root canal-treated tooth, or have replaced a missing tooth with a dental implant, a crown may be the right solution for you.
Real Patients.
Real Results.
This patient was dissatisfied with the appearance of her two front teeth. We fabricated two dental crowns made from high-quality dental porcelain. Once bonded into place, these restorations brought more balance and symmetry to her smile. While crowns may be made from many different materials, porcelain has the closest resemblance to natural teeth, so it is used most often for crowns in the smile zone.

What can crowns do for my teeth?
Dental Crowns Improve Health, Appearance, and Function
Virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth, modern dental crowns offer a long-lasting solution to dental damage. Most patients find that they are able to chew more comfortably and speak more clearly once their new restoration is in place. Let's find out why this restorative procedure is one of the most popular treatments in dentistry.
Advanced dental materials, such as medical-grade ceramic and zirconia, allow us to create custom restorations that not only fit in with your smile, but also mimic the translucency of your natural teeth.
A damaged tooth can seriously compromise the health of your adjacent teeth. Dental crowns help enhance your appearance, reestablish chewing function, and restore optimal oral health.
On average, dental crowns can last between five and 15 years. When cared for properly, they can last even longer. Dr. Perry creates crowns that are both durable and aesthetically pleasing.
What should I expect during my dentistry appointment?

Treatment Process
Crown treatment can usually be completed in two appointments at our dental practice. During an initial consultation, your San Antonio, TX, dentist will assess your candidacy for dental crowns. In addition to a visual examination, we will also take X-rays or scans to determine the extent of damage and ensure that your tooth is healthy enough for a crown.
Our dentist uses a local lab and lifelike, durable materials like zirconia to create custom dental crowns.

Missing a Tooth? An Implant-Supported Crown Can Restore Your Smile
Get your full smile back! Traditional crowns protect damaged teeth, but crowns can also be used to fully restore a missing tooth. An implant-supported crown replaces the entire tooth structure, filling the gap in your smile with a functional, natural-looking prosthetic.
Dental implants are threaded titanium rods that are placed in the jaw where they act as artificial tooth roots. Implants fuse with your jawbone to create a stable base for restorations. Traditional approaches to restoring a single missing tooth require modifications to nearby healthy teeth, but an implant-supported crown allows a missing tooth to be replaced without impacting the rest of your smile. At River City Dental Solutions, Dr. Joseph Perry can perform the entire implant placement process from start to finish – something many dental offices don't offer.
How Much
Do Crowns Cost?
/
The cost of a dental crown is as unique as the tooth being treated; many factors can influence cost, such as the material used and if associated procedures such as a root canal were needed. Thankfully, dental insurance often covers dental crowns. However, patients considering implant-supported crowns should note insurance doesn't cover the cost of dental implants, though it may cover the restoration.
For patients without insurance, we offer membership plans through Smile Advantage. This can help ensure treatment is accessible to all our patients.

I was scared to death to go to the dentist and very worried about what I would find out when I got there. The staff is amazing and took the time to make sure I was comfortable and all of my questions were answered. I really cannot say how much I appreciate how kind and understanding they were with me!
