The Basics
Metal-free crowns are tooth-shaped caps made entirely of ceramic, with no metal underneath. Because ceramic lets light pass through it the way enamel does, these crowns can closely match the color and translucency of your natural teeth.
They blend in especially well when only one or a few teeth are being restored, and in many cases it is hard to tell a metal-free crown from a natural tooth. There is no dark metal edge at the gumline, and the material is well tolerated by the surrounding gum tissue, which can shape around the crown much as it does around a natural tooth.
Uses
A crown is recommended when a tooth is too damaged or weak for a filling alone. It covers the whole visible part of the tooth to protect it from breaking further.
Holds a cracked tooth together and restores a chipped or broken one.
Protects a tooth that has more filling than natural structure left.
Back teeth often need a crown after root canal treatment.
Covers stained, misshapen or worn teeth for a more even smile.

Benefits
The main advantages of an all-ceramic crown are a natural look, gum-friendly materials and solid everyday strength. Here is what patients in Katy most often value:
Your dentist will advise you on the best type of ceramic for your tooth, since front and back teeth have different needs. For small damage, a tooth-colored filling may be all you need.
The Process
Getting a crown usually takes more than one visit: one to prepare the tooth and one to fit the final crown. How many visits you need depends on your tooth, and we explain the plan at the start.
STEP 01
We check the tooth, the root and the surrounding bone and explain your options and cost.
STEP 02
The tooth is numbed and gently reshaped to make room for the crown.
STEP 03
We take impressions for your custom crown and protect the tooth with a temporary one.
STEP 04
The ceramic crown is checked for fit, color and bite, then bonded in place.
Call (713) 999-5328 or walk in. Open 7 days a week in Katy.
Urgent Help
If a crown falls off or cracks, call us the same day; we can often re-cement a crown that is intact or protect the tooth until a new one is made. Keep the crown in a clean container and bring it with you.
Avoid chewing on that side and do not use household glue to reattach it. Our guide on tooth pain after a crown falls off explains what to do in the meantime, and our dental emergency page covers other urgent problems.
Care
A ceramic crown is cared for just like a natural tooth: brush twice a day, floss daily and keep up regular dental visits. The tooth under the crown can still get decay at the edges, so cleaning along the gumline matters.
Avoid chewing ice, pens or very hard foods, and ask about a night guard if you grind your teeth. How long a crown lasts varies from person to person, and your dentist will advise you based on your bite and habits.
Cost & Location
We accept most dental insurance on an indemnity basis, plus cash, debit and major credit cards, and offer discounts and payment plans for patients without insurance. The cost of your crown is explained before treatment, with no hidden charges.

FAQ
Modern ceramic crowns are made to handle normal chewing forces, and many are used on molars. Your dentist will advise you on the best ceramic for your tooth based on its position and your bite.
Most crowns take two visits: one to prepare the tooth and place a temporary crown, and one to fit the final crown. More than one visit may be needed depending on your situation, and we explain the plan at the start.
Yes. All-ceramic crowns let light pass through like natural enamel and are shaded to match your teeth, so in many cases they are hard to tell apart from natural teeth.
The tooth is numbed before it is prepared, so most patients feel only pressure. Some mild sensitivity for a few days afterward is normal.
Keep the crown, avoid chewing on that side and call (713) 999-5328 for a same-day visit. We can often re-cement an intact crown or protect the tooth until a new one is made.
Many dental plans cover part of the cost of a crown when it is needed to restore a damaged tooth. We accept most dental insurance on an indemnity basis and explain your cost before treatment begins.
Yes. Walk-In Dental Clinic is open 7 days a week, including evenings and weekends, so you can start crown treatment at a time that fits your schedule.
