When Are Dental Crowns The Best Solution?
Dr. Sam Saadat begins every consultation with a comprehensive examination and digital imaging to assess your tooth’s condition and determine the most appropriate treatment. Dental crowns are often recommended when a tooth needs significant protection or restoration, including situations such as:
- →A tooth that’s been severely damaged by decay or trauma
- →Root canal treated teeth that need additional protection and strength
- →Cracked or fractured teeth that are at risk of further damage
- →Cosmetic enhancement of misshapen, discolored, or worn teeth
- →Support for large fillings when there isn’t enough natural tooth structure remaining
This careful evaluation process ensures that you receive the treatment that will best preserve your oral health and give you lasting results.
Long-Term Benefits of Quality Dental Crowns
A well-made dental crown isn’t just about fixing today’s problem, it’s an investment in your smile’s future health and appearance. Crowns provide essential protection that helps prevent further damage, decay, and potential tooth loss. They restore your ability to chew comfortably and speak clearly while maintaining proper bite alignment throughout your mouth. With proper care, high-quality crowns can last 15-20 years or more, making them one of the most reliable solutions for damaged teeth. Our patients consistently report improved confidence in their smile and relief from the discomfort that brought them to our office.

Our Dental Extraction Process
01.
Comprehensive Evaluation
We start with a thorough examination using digital X-rays and intraoral cameras to assess the tooth’s condition and surrounding structures. Dr. Saadat will explain why a crown is the best option for your situation and discuss material choices, timeline, and what to expect throughout treatment.
02.
Precise Tooth Preparation
Using gentle techniques and local anesthesia, we carefully reshape the tooth to create an ideal foundation for your crown. Our conservative approach removes only the damaged portion of the tooth while preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible for optimal long-term strength.
03.
Impression and Design
We use advanced digital scanning technology combined with traditional impression materials to capture precise measurements of your prepared tooth and surrounding teeth. This comprehensive impression process ensures we have all the details needed to design a crown that fits perfectly and matches the natural contours and color of your existing teeth.
04.
Fabrication and Placement
We’ll place a comfortable temporary crown to protect your prepared tooth while your permanent crown is custom-crafted by our skilled lab technicians, typically taking 1-2 weeks for completion. When your permanent crown is ready, you’ll return for final placement where we ensure perfect fit, bite, and aesthetics before permanent cementation.
Crown Materials: Choosing What’s Right for You
The choice of crown material depends on several factors including the tooth’s location, your bite pattern, aesthetic preferences, and budget considerations. Dr. Saadat will help you understand the benefits of each option to make an informed decision:
Porcelain Crowns All-ceramic crowns offer the most natural appearance and are ideal for front teeth where aesthetics are paramount. They’re biocompatible, stain-resistant, and can be matched precisely to your natural tooth color. These crowns work exceptionally well for patients with metal sensitivities and provide excellent results in the smile zone.
Zirconia Crowns Known for their exceptional strength and durability, zirconia crowns are perfect for back teeth that experience heavy chewing forces. They offer excellent longevity while still providing good aesthetic results. Zirconia is also metal-free, making it an excellent choice for patients who prefer biocompatible materials.
Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) This time-tested option combines the strength of metal with the natural appearance of porcelain. PFM crowns are particularly suitable for back teeth where maximum durability is needed, and they offer a reliable, cost-effective solution that has been successfully used for decades.
At Newbury Smiles, we take time to explain each option thoroughly so you can choose the material that best meets your functional needs, aesthetic goals, and budget requirements.

I had a very old crown pop off and they scheduled me in the day I called. Turned out the old crown had a hole in it, so they did all of the prep work and buildup for the new crown, and they attached the new temporary crown. They did all of this in a little more than an hour. Awesome job !!!!
I will continue on brushing my teeth for two minutes longer so that I have no cavities. See you in August 28 at 3:00 p.m.
I absolutely love coming here, and that’s saying a lot about going to the Dentist! Everyone is super friendly and down to earth! They’re top notch at what they do! I love catching up with everyone too! They actually love their jobs, and they’re not robots. Dr. Sam is the absolute BEST! He listens and he is really patient too. He really does want the best for his clients and he wants them happy. I’m going back next week for some cosmetic treatment bonding on my teeth, and I trust him completely! When it comes to a cleaning and X-Ray’s, I’m really bad at X-Rays, Ann is tremendously patient and has tricks up her sleeve! Ann’s warm smile can light up a room, and she will quickly put your nerves at ease. The entire team works very hard to provide excellent customer service! Thank you so much for everything you do! I’m really really really bad at names, but I remember faces, so thank you to everyone, I really mean it!
My first time here as a first time patient. Amazing deal! Only $99 for full exam & cleaning. The dentist and staff are so kind and easy going. I’ll be going here for all my future needs, I definitely trust them.
I’ve been going to Newbury Smiles for over a decade. Dr. Sam and his team are the best. They are professional, friendly and accommodating. I will always highly recommend them to my friends and family.
Great dentist with great hands. I and my wife have been going there for a few years. It’s far from us but it’s worth the drive. He helped me with a mess that was created by a famous dentist, who appeared on national TVs. That guy pulled a tooth out when he shouldn’t have. Dr. Sam designed a crown specifically for my situation that resolved the issue. Other dentists told me that it’s a done deal and I should just manage. Highly recommend him!
