Dental crowns play a critical role in restoring teeth that are weakened, broken or structurally compromised. At Juniper Dentistry, our dentist and team provide dental crowns crafted from modern materials that offer both durability and natural aesthetics. Among the most advanced options available today are Zirconia crowns—renowned for their strength, minimal preparation requirements and lifelike appearance.
Dental crowns function as a protective cap that fully encases the visible portion of a tooth. They are often recommended after large cavities, root canal therapy or to restore a broken tooth. Our crowns are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural smile, offering both strength and visual harmony.
Why Zirconia Crowns Stand Out
Zirconia is a ceramic material prized for its resilience. Its exceptional strength makes it an ideal choice for withstanding everyday chewing forces while maintaining a high level of comfort. Unlike traditional metal-based crowns, Zirconia does not compromise on beauty or biocompatibility.
Key advantages of Zirconia crowns include:
• High resistance to fractures and wear
• Natural translucency for a lifelike appearance
• Minimal tooth reduction during placement
• No dark gum lines or metal shadows
• Long-lasting performance under normal dental care
This approach to restoration reflects our commitment to conservative treatment planning. Dr. Jessica Rhodes emphasizes preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible while still delivering a secure, functional restoration.
Zirconia crowns are also ideal for both front and back teeth due to their strength and esthetic qualities. Whether restoring a molar that handles significant chewing force or enhancing a visible front tooth, this material provides a balance of utility and beauty. Our dentist will carefully evaluate the location and condition of each tooth to ensure the crown selected delivers optimal results.
Designed with Precision and Aesthetic Detail
Every dental crown is custom designed to match the size, shape and color of your surrounding teeth. Our dentist and team use digital imaging technology to ensure a precise fit that supports healthy bite function and enhances the appearance of your smile. The result is a crown that not only protects the tooth but elevates the overall look and feel of your mouth.
