What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a custom-made cap placed over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance. It covers the entire visible portion of the tooth above the gum line, functioning just like a natural tooth. At Dentist of Redlands, we specialize in zirconia crowns, a preferred material for their durability and lifelike appearance. They blend naturally with surrounding teeth while holding up to everyday biting and chewing.

The Benefits of Dental Crowns

Restored Function

Crowns rebuild the biting strength lost to damage, decay, or wear.

Natural Appearance

Zirconia crowns blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth.

Long-Lasting Results

With proper care, dental crowns can last 15 years or more with minimal maintenance.

Tooth Protection

Crowns shield vulnerable teeth from further cracking or infection.

Improved Confidence

A complete, healthy smile makes a noticeable difference every day.

Versatile Solution

Crowns support implants, restore broken teeth, and protect root-canal-treated teeth.

Our Dental Crown Process

Getting dental crowns in Redlands, CA, at our office is a comfortable, step-by-step process guided by Dr. Munguia.

Request an Appointment
  1. 01

    Consultation & Exam

    Dr. Munguia evaluates your tooth using digital X-rays and an intraoral camera to determine if a crown is the right treatment.

  2. 02

    Tooth Preparation

    The tooth is gently reshaped, and a digital scan is taken to ensure your crown fits with precision.

  3. 03

    Crown Fabrication

    Your custom zirconia crown is crafted to match the color, shape, and size of your surrounding teeth.

  4. 04

    Crown Placement

    Dr. Munguia bonds the finished crown into place, checks your bite, and makes any final adjustments for comfort.

Signs You May Need a Dental Crown

Dental crowns in Redlands, CA, may be the right solution if you’re dealing with any of these common issues.

  • Cracked Tooth: A crack that causes pain while chewing may need a crown to hold the tooth together and prevent further damage.

  • Severe Decay: When a cavity is too large for a filling, a crown can fully restore the tooth’s strength and function.

  • After Root Canal: A tooth treated with a root canal becomes brittle over time, making a crown essential for long-term protection.

  • Broken or Chipped Tooth: A significant break or chip can compromise your bite and leave the tooth vulnerable to infection.

  • Worn Enamel: Teeth worn down by grinding or acid erosion may need crowns to restore height and reduce sensitivity.

  • Dental Implant Restoration: A crown placed on top of an implant creates a complete, functional, and natural-looking replacement tooth.

  • Dr. Lee is an excellent dentist. Unfortunately, I have had many dental issues over the years and have, as a consequence, been under the care of many dentists. Dr. Lee stands out to me as one of the best I've had. Under her care, I've had general exams, teeth cleanings, braces, and two crowns. She demonstrates care, patience, and understanding for her patients. She provides recommendations for treatment without being pushy or judgmental about your decision based on that recommendation. From my personal experience, I've seen her go above and beyond to ensure her patients get what they need no matter what. As a bonus, her office staff are friendly and professional. I highly recommend this dentist!

  • ★★★★★ I recently completed orthodontic treatment with Dr. Nomi Lee, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. From the very beginning, she was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to clearly explain the entire treatment process. She made me feel comfortable and confident every step of the way, and the results exceeded my expectations. I also want to give a big thank you to her office Manager Erika, who helped me with my first appointment, linking my insurance and making every appointment smooth. Erika is a huge help when it comes to getting started with my dental treatment. If you’re looking for a general dentist and orthodontist who is skilled, kind, and has an amazing staff, I highly recommend Dr. Lee and her team. Five stars all the way!

  • I had another great experience at Dr. Nomi Lee’s office. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Dr. Lee is professional, kind, and truly cares about her patients’ well-being. I came in for a check-up and cleaning, and as always, my hygienist Yelena was fantastic—friendly, personable, and incredibly thoughtful. She always checks in to make sure I’m comfortable and takes extra care to ensure nothing is painful. It really makes a difference to be treated with that level of attentiveness. Erika in the front office is always looking out for my best interest. She never fails to have a positive demeanor. The entire staff is accommodating and kind, and they make going to the dentist a positive and stress-free experience. I highly recommend Dr. Lee and her team to anyone looking for excellent dental care with a personal touch.

  • Been going here for several months now and wow, love the friendly, warm staff and professional work. Initially, I came here for a simple tooth extraction but after further examination, the dentist saw 2 cavities and a cracked tooth. This led to several trips to their office, each one with a friendly text notification of an upcoming appointment the day prior to the procedure. Each experience has been a pleasant & professional one with the utmost concern for any pain or discomfort. The tooth extraction was a breeze and I barely felt anything. Elena did deep cleaning on my dentures 3 times and is such a sweetheart per experience, concerned for any pain and answering all my questions. This place has definitely helped me lose fear in going to the dentist 🙏
