Dental Crowns iN FLORHAM PARK, NJ
If you have severely decayed or weak teeth, dental crowns might be the solution for you. Dr. Sirin Ocharoen, DMD, at Sirinity Smiles in Florham Park, New Jersey, offers dental crowns as a way to restore and improve the aesthetics and function of your smile.
Sometimes, a tooth requires more than a simple filling. A crown is a “cap” that fits over a severely decayed or fractured tooth. Crowns are often needed when a large cavity threatens the ongoing health of a tooth.
Dental crowns can offer a range of benefits. They are custom-designed to blend in with your natural teeth, providing aesthetic and functional improvements to your smile. Additionally, they add support to weakened or damaged teeth and can be used in conjunction with other dental procedures, like bridges.
Getting a crown usually involves two appointments. The first visit includes removing decay, reshaping the tooth if necessary, and fitting a temporary crown. An impression of your tooth will also be taken to ensure the crown fits perfectly.
While your permanent crown is being made, Dr. Ocharoen fits you with a temporary crown to protect your tooth until she installs the permanent one.
Dr. Ocharoen custom designs your crown so it blends in seamlessly with your adjacent natural teeth. Crowns are cemented into place so they become a permanent fixture in your mouth that you care for as you would your natural teeth. Crowns are also used as the visible portion of a dental implant, typically made from ceramic or porcelain.
Most people choose our porcelain or ceramic tooth-colored crowns because they look most like natural teeth. However, we also offer the options of porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns and gold crowns.

FAQs
About Dental Crowns
A dental crown is a custom-made “cap” that fits over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance. Crowns are commonly used to protect teeth after large fillings, root canal treatments, or fractures. They can also improve the look of discolored or misshapen teeth, helping you achieve a strong and natural-looking smile.
Dental crowns can be made from several materials, including porcelain, ceramic, metal alloys, or zirconia. At Sirinity Smiles, we often recommend tooth-colored crowns made from porcelain or zirconia for their durability and ability to blend beautifully with your natural teeth. Your dentist will help you choose the best option based on the tooth’s location, function, and your aesthetic goals.
Getting a crown typically takes two visits. During the first appointment, your dentist reshapes the tooth and takes precise digital impressions to create your custom crown. A temporary crown protects your tooth while the permanent one is being made. At your second visit, the new crown is bonded securely in place and adjusted for a perfect fit and natural bite.
With proper care, dental crowns can last 10 to 15 years or longer. To protect your crown, maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing daily, avoid chewing hard objects (like ice or pens), and visit your dentist regularly for cleanings and exams. If you grind your teeth, a nightguard may also help extend your crown’s lifespan.
