Ceramic Dental Crowns in Red Bank, NJ

When a tooth is weakened, damaged, or cosmetically flawed, a ceramic crown can restore its strength, shape, and appearance—all while blending in beautifully with your natural teeth. At Wellness Dental of Red Bank, we craft custom ceramic crowns that are durable, lifelike, and designed to last.

As a trusted Red Bank dentist, we combine modern technology with artistic precision to provide restorations that are both functional and aesthetic.

What Is a Ceramic Crown?

A crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” that covers a damaged or compromised tooth. Our ceramic crowns are made from high-quality porcelain or zirconia and are custom-designed to match your smile in color, contour, and translucency.

We use ceramic crowns to:

• Restore cracked, broken, or severely worn teeth
  
• Cover teeth after root canal therapy
  
• Replace large, failing fillings
  
• Protect weak teeth from further damage
  
• Improve the appearance of discolored or misshapen teeth
  

Crowns can also be used as part of a dental bridge or placed over a dental implant to replace missing teeth.

The Crown Process: What to Expect

Getting a ceramic crown typically takes two visits:

1. Preparation and Impressions: The affected tooth is gently reshaped, and a digital scan or impression is taken. You’ll leave with a natural-looking temporary crown.
   
2. Final Placement: Once your custom crown is ready, we’ll bond it securely in place and make any necessary adjustments for comfort and bite alignment.
   

Our team—Dr. Vipul Patel, Dr. Mina Salib, and Dr. Krishna Sureshkumar—ensures that each crown is precisely fitted for maximum comfort, longevity, and natural appearance.

Why Choose Ceramic Over Metal Crowns?

Ceramic crowns offer several advantages, especially for visible front or side teeth:

• No metal base means no gray lines at the gumline
  
• Biocompatible and metal-free, reducing allergy risks
  
• Stain-resistant and long-lasting
  
• Translucent like natural enamel for a realistic look
  

If you’re seeking a cosmetic upgrade or replacing an older metal crown, ceramic is the clear choice for beauty and performance.

Cosmetic & Restorative Benefits

While ceramic crowns are often used to restore function, they also offer powerful cosmetic advantages. They can be used alone or as part of a smile makeover, especially for teeth that are discolored, uneven, or affected by old dental work.

Your crown will be custom-tinted to match your surrounding teeth—or to blend seamlessly with porcelain veneers or other cosmetic treatments.

Affordable Solutions with Long-Term Value

Crowns are often covered at least partially by dental insurance when deemed medically necessary. Our office accepts most plans and provides flexible financing options through CareCredit and Cherry to make your crown more accessible.

Ceramic crowns are a smart long-term investment in both your smile and your dental health.
