Strong, Long-Lasting Solutions for Damaged Teeth
A damaged or weakened tooth doesn’t always need to be removed. In many cases, a dental crown can restore its strength and protect it from further damage. At Element Dental & Orthodontics Tomball, we provide custom crowns designed to improve durability, function, and appearance.
Crowns are often recommended for teeth that are cracked, severely decayed, worn down, or have had root canal treatment. By covering the visible portion of the tooth, a crown reinforces its structure and allows you to bite and chew comfortably with renewed confidence.

How Dental Crowns Restore Your Tooth
A dental crown is a custom-fabricated cap that fits over a prepared tooth to restore its shape, size, and strength. It is designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth while providing durable protection. Modern crowns are crafted to look natural and offer long-lasting support for improved function and appearance.
Crowns help to:
- Protect weakened teeth from fracture
- Restore teeth with large or damaged fillings
- Cover cracked, chipped, or worn-down teeth
- Strengthen teeth after root canal treatment
- Improve the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth
The Dental Crown Process
Getting a dental crown generally requires two dental visits to complete the process.
Examination and Preparation
We examine the tooth and remove any decay or damaged structure. The tooth is then reshaped to make space for the crown, and impressions are taken to create a custom restoration that fits precisely.
1
Temporary Crown Placement
A temporary crown is placed to protect the prepared tooth while your permanent crown is being custom-made.
2
Final Crown Placement
Once the permanent crown is ready, we remove the temporary crown and securely place the final crown. We then check your bite and make any necessary adjustments to ensure proper fit and comfort.

When a Crown May Be Recommended
Crowns are often recommended when a tooth cannot be effectively restored with a simple filling. If the remaining tooth structure is weak or compromised, a crown provides added strength and long-term reinforcement.
A dental crown may be recommended if you experience:
- A fractured or chipped tooth
- A tooth with extensive decay
- A tooth that is worn down from grinding
- A tooth that has undergone root canal treatment
- A cosmetic concern that requires full coverage for improvement
Early treatment can help prevent more serious complications and protect your overall oral health.
Rebuilding Strength and Confidence in Your Bite
Dental crowns are built to last for many years with proper care. Practicing good oral hygiene and keeping up with routine dental checkups can help extend the lifespan of your restoration.
At Element Dental & Orthodontics Tomball, we restore damaged teeth with precision and careful attention to detail. Our priority is to preserve your natural tooth structure while improving function, comfort, and overall oral health.
