A crown caps a tooth that has lost too much of its structure. Dr. Pierpont provides crowns for Oneco patients and digitally scans the tooth with TRIOS to design them.
Sometimes a smaller repair is smarter, and she will tell you if it is.
Two visits, one tooth
At the first visit the tooth is numbed, shaped and scanned, and a temporary crown goes on. At the second, the finished crown is fitted.
We time the pair to suit you.

Cracks that need attention
A crack can grow with each bite. Early coverage can keep it from splitting.
Ignore it and the tooth may be lost.

White fillings first, if enough tooth remains
Moderate decay can often be rebuilt with a bonded white filling. That saves tooth and money.
We choose the least invasive option that will last.

About Oneco
Oneco is a suburb of Bradenton and has had a post office since 1889. A tooth can be just as durable with the right support.
A crown means two trips to St. Pete Beach, about 24 miles away in a straight line. We offer free second opinions if you want to compare advice.
Call (727) 363-6169 to get a tooth looked at. Ask for a same-day slot if it hurts.
