When a tooth is cracked or too weak for another filling, a crown is often the sturdy answer. Dr. Pierpont makes crowns from a TRIOS 3D scan at Pier Dental.
Bradenton Beach is about 19.7 miles south of our office in a straight line, so we describe the plan and timing fully before you commit.
Is this tooth a crown candidate

We look at how much healthy tooth remains. If enough is left, a crown can last for years.
You see the same X-rays and scan we do.

A crown after a root canal

Root canal treatment saves the tooth, and a crown helps protect it afterward.
Both can be planned together.

A smaller option

If only part of the tooth is damaged, an onlay may cover just that area.
We will compare the choices honestly.
