Dental Crowns · Manhattan
A crown that protects your tooth — and looks like it was always there.
Where possible, Dr. Lazare applies biomimetic principles to crown preparation — conserving healthy tooth structure rather than removing it aggressively. When a full crown is the right solution, it is fabricated to the same aesthetic and functional standard as every restoration at this practice.
Preservation-first approach
Healthy tooth structure retained wherever possible before crown preparation.

Restore Your Missing & Damaged Teeth in Manhattan's Upper East Side, Upper West Side and the Surrounding Areas
In dentistry, a dental crown can refer to two different things. In an unmodified tooth, the crown is the portion of the natural tooth that protrudes visibly from the gum line. A crown can also be a term for a synthetically crafted tooth that is used to cover a damaged or weakened existing tooth. A crowned tooth is one that has been restored with a dental crown to protect and restore its function.
Before placing a crown, the dentist examines the tooth and may take an x ray to assess its condition and plan the treatment. The preparation process often involves removing decay to ensure the tooth is healthy and ready for the crown. Impressions are then taken of the tooth and adjacent teeth to ensure the dental crown fits properly and functions well within the bite.

How Long Can You Expect Your Crowns to Last?
The lighter-colored, non-metal materials like e-max appear more natural in the mouth, though porcelain-fused-to-metal can be a compromise between the durability of metal and the natural appearance of porcelain. Newer materials like Zirconia crowns can provide strength but are metal-free.
There are several factors to consider when choosing the material of your crown, for how long do they last being one of them, and Dr. Lazare will offer guidance in this choice. Depending on the craftsmanship of the crown and the skill of the dentist installing the dental crown, these fixtures can last for many years with proper care.
