A dental crown, or cap, is a restoration that can be used for a number of purposes. One of the most common uses of a dental crown is to restore a tooth that is significantly damaged or decayed. The crown is custom made to fit over the entire tooth, starting at the gumline, in order to restore the tooth to its original shape and size. Dental crowns can be made of gold, porcelain or porcelain fused to metal; porcelain crowns are popular because they match the natural color and appearance of your teeth. Our dentist will help you determine which type of dental crown is right for your smile.

Your smile may benefit from a crown if a tooth is damaged or decayed to the point that a dental filling will not provide a successful restoration. Crowns can also be used for a number of other restorative and aesthetic purposes, including to:

  • Protect a tooth following root canal treatment
  • Anchor and attach a dental bridge
  • Cover and complete a dental implant
  • Enhance the beauty of your smile
  • Improve a misshapen tooth
  • Strengthen a tooth that is fractured or weak
  • Support a large filling when little natural tooth structure remains

To find out whether a dental crown is right for you, we welcome you to contact us today!

Restore Damaged Teeth With Custom Dental Crowns in Pine Beach, NJ

A dental crown is a custom-made cap that covers a damaged, decayed, or cosmetically compromised tooth, restoring its strength, shape, and appearance. At Century Dental East, Dr. Mariya Medlenov, DDS uses modern materials — porcelain, zirconia, and porcelain-fused-to-metal — to craft crowns that look natural, feel comfortable, and last 10 to 20 years or more.

Patients travel from Pine Beach, Toms River, Bayville, Beachwood, Berkeley Township, and across Ocean County for crown treatment because of our precise preparation technique and Dr. Medlenov's gentle, patient-centered approach.

When Is a Dental Crown Needed?

What to Expect: Your Dental Crown Journey

Visit 1 — Tooth Preparation & Impressions

Dr. Medlenov numbs the area, removes any decay, and gently shapes the tooth to receive the crown. A digital impression is taken and sent to the dental lab. A temporary crown is placed to protect the tooth while the permanent crown is being crafted — typically 2–3 weeks.

Visit 2 — Permanent Crown Placement

At your second visit, Dr. Medlenov removes the temporary crown, checks the fit and color of the permanent crown, and bonds it into place with professional-grade dental cement.

Types of Dental Crowns

Porcelain Crowns

Our most popular option for front teeth. All-porcelain crowns are the most natural-looking. Best for front teeth where aesthetics matter most.

Zirconia Crowns

Extraordinarily strong and durable. Ideal for back molars that do the heavy chewing.

Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal Crowns

Combine a metal substructure for strength with a porcelain outer layer for aesthetics. Durable and affordable.
