Dental Crowns in Garden Grove, CA
What are Dental Crowns?
A dental crown is a custom-crafted cap placed over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance. Designed to cover the entire visible portion of the tooth, a crown functions just like a natural tooth once bonded in place — protecting what’s underneath while blending in beautifully with your surrounding smile. At Westgrove Dental Care, we understand that undergoing dental treatment can feel daunting, which is why every step of your crown procedure is carried out with your comfort and well-being at the forefront.
CAll 714-893-2453The Benefits of Dental Crowns
A well-placed dental crown does far more than improve appearance — it’s one of the most reliable ways to preserve a tooth that might otherwise be lost.
Restores Strength
A crown reinforces a cracked, weakened, or heavily restored tooth, allowing it to withstand normal biting and chewing forces again.
Natural Results
Crowns are color-matched and contoured to blend seamlessly with surrounding teeth, so your restoration is virtually undetectable.
Lasting Protection
With proper care, a quality dental crown can protect your tooth for ten to fifteen years or more.
Versatile Solution
Crowns serve multiple purposes from completing a root canal or anchoring a bridge to restoring a dental implant or improving a misshapen tooth.
Our Dental Crowns Process
Here’s what you can expect when you come in for a dental crown at Westgrove Dental Care.
1
Evaluation and Prep
Our dentists will examine the tooth, take digital X-rays, and gently shape it to create the ideal foundation for your new crown.
2
Precision Impressions
Precise digital impressions are captured and used to design a crown crafted specifically to your tooth’s dimensions and your smile’s natural color.
3
Temporary Crown
A temporary crown is placed to protect your tooth while your permanent restoration is being fabricated.
4
Final Placement
Once your custom crown is ready, our dentists will fit, adjust, and permanently bond it for a comfortable, lasting result.
Signs You May Need a Dental Crown
It may be time to schedule an evaluation if you’re noticing any of the following.
Cracked Tooth
A visible crack or fracture that is causing pain or sensitivity when biting down needs prompt attention to prevent it from worsening.
Severe Decay
A cavity too large to be addressed with a filling may require a crown to fully restore the tooth’s structure and strength.
Worn Enamel
Teeth that have become significantly worn from grinding or acid erosion may need a crown to rebuild their shape and function.
Recent Root Canal
A tooth that has undergone root canal treatment typically requires a crown to protect the restored structure from future damage.
Broken Restoration
A tooth with a large, old filling that has cracked or failed may need a crown to provide more comprehensive coverage and support.
Uneven Tooth
A crown can also serve a cosmetic purpose, correcting a tooth that is disproportionate, severely stained, or visually inconsistent with the rest of your smile.

How long do dental crowns last?
With proper care, a well-made crown can last ten to fifteen years or more. Our dentists monitor your restorations at every checkup and will let you know if anything needs attention.
How much do dental crowns cost?
The cost of a crown varies depending on the tooth being treated and the materials used, and our team will always review pricing with you before beginning treatment. Patients on our in-house dental savings plan receive a 15% discount on restorative procedures, including crowns.
