For Natural-Looking, Long-Lasting Protection
What Are Crowns?
Procera crowns are high-strength, all-ceramic restorations used to rebuild teeth that are cracked, worn down, or have large fillings. Unlike traditional crowns that contain metal, Procera crowns are fully biocompatible and designed for superior aesthetics and durability. They are made from a dense ceramic core with a porcelain overlay, combining lifelike translucency with impressive structural support.
These crowns are ideal for both front and back teeth, especially for patients who want to avoid metal or have sensitivities to traditional materials. After preparing the tooth, we take digital impressions to ensure a precise fit. While your crown is being crafted, a temporary crown is placed to protect your tooth. Once your custom Procera crown is ready, it is bonded securely in place, restoring natural function and appearance. Whether you’re covering a dental implant, strengthening a root canal-treated tooth, or replacing a worn restoration, Procera crowns deliver reliable protection and a flawless finish that blends seamlessly into your smile.
Benefits of Crowns
1
Metal-Free and Biocompatible
Made entirely of ceramic, Procera crowns eliminate the risk of metal allergies or dark lines at the gumline. They’re ideal for patients seeking a natural, health-conscious alternative to traditional metal-based crowns.
2
Extremely Durable
Procera crowns are engineered for strength and resilience. Their dense ceramic core resists chips, fractures, and wear, making them suitable for high-pressure areas like molars and premolars.
3
Aesthetic Excellence
Each Procera crown is shaded and shaped to match your existing teeth. The natural translucency of porcelain gives these crowns a realistic look that’s nearly indistinguishable from your surrounding teeth.
A Seamless Fit from Start to Finish
Custom-Crafted Crowns with Precision Technology
Step 1
We start by preparing the damaged tooth, removing any decay or old restorations. Digital scans are then taken to create a precise, 3D model for your custom Procera crown.
Step 2
A temporary crown is placed while your permanent one is being fabricated. We work with a dental lab to craft your Procera crown using advanced ceramic materials matched to your natural teeth.
Step 3
Once your custom crown is ready, we check the fit, color, and bite before bonding it in place. The result is a strong, natural-looking restoration that restores both function and beauty.
