Dental Crowns in Boston
Porcelain and Zirconia Crowns Crafted for Long-Term Durability
Who Needs a Dental Crown?
After root canal treatment
Crowns protect root-canal treated teeth from cracking.
Large cavity or fracture
When more than 50% of a tooth is compromised, a crown restores structure.
Cosmetic discoloration
Deep stains or misshapen teeth where veneers are not enough.
On top of an implant
Single-tooth implants get a custom crown placed on top.
Wear from grinding
Severely worn teeth regain height and function with crowns.
Part of a bridge
Bridges use crowns as the two anchor points.

Answers About Dental Crowns
Quality crowns typically last 10–20 years with proper oral care and routine check-ups.
Pricing varies by material (porcelain, zirconia) and complexity. You receive a written estimate at consultation.
Yes, in some cases — CEREC chairside milling offers same-day crowns for specific tooth types. For high-aesthetic anterior crowns, hand-layered lab crowns remain the gold standard.
Porcelain is preferred for front teeth (better aesthetics). Zirconia is stronger — better for back teeth and patients with heavy bite force.
Often yes, at least partially, when the crown is medically necessary (protecting a root-canal-treated or severely damaged tooth).
The tooth is reshaped to accept the crown — but the crown then protects it from further damage and restores function for decades.
Yes — most single-tooth implants are restored with a custom crown. We handle both surgical and restorative phases in-house.
A Crown That Fits, Fits Right
At Metro Dental, your crown is hand-crafted by the same master ceramist who fabricates our 3-on-6™ full-arch bridges — with the margin precision that comes from periodontist-level training.
