Dental Crowns
Having a damaged or decayed tooth can be painful and make it difficult to eat or speak.
Our Hewitt dental practice just outside of Waco, TX, can craft beautiful and natural-looking dental crowns to restore your tooth.
Learn how our skilled dentists can help you achieve a beautiful smile with same-day crowns in as little as one appointment.
What is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped shell made of porcelain that fits over a damaged tooth or over a decayed tooth following treatment like root canal therapy. A crown restores the tooth's function and provides strength and protection to maintain the structure, eliminating the need for extraction. A dental crown can also be paired with a dental implant to replace a single missing tooth.
Crowns in One Visit
Our Hewitt dental practice is proud to offer same-day porcelain crowns using CEREC® technology. This allows us to craft your custom porcelain restoration in as little as an hour. At our practice, you can save both time and money because there is no need to wait weeks for a permanent crown, or hassle with a temporary crown.

Your dentist will reshape the natural tooth so that the crown fits properly and blends with your other teeth.
Benefits of a Dental Crown
Restored Function
A damaged or decayed tooth can not only be painful, but also make it difficult to properly chew or speak. A dental crown helps to restore your oral function so you can chew and speak properly.
Restored Appearance
Dental crowns also provide cosmetic benefits. Our crowns are shade-matched and designed to look natural alongside your other teeth. In addition to their practical benefits, our crowns can be used to conceal cosmetic imperfections such as cracks and chips.
Restored Oral Health
Once your dentist addresses decay or trauma with treatments such as root canal therapy, a crown can protect the tooth to prevent further damage.
