How Do Dental Crowns Work?
A dental crown is a custom-made restoration that caps the entire surface of a natural tooth above the gumline. Crowns can be made of various materials, including ceramic, porcelain, and zirconia, each of which can blend seamlessly into your smile.
These dental restorations serve many purposes, whether to restore natural teeth after root canal treatment, cosmetically enhance teeth that are chipped or stained, or to replace missing natural teeth through implant dentistry.

A Closer Look at Our Technology The Best Tools and Materials for the Best Care
Materials Matter When Making Crowns
Dr. Ann Sielicki is known throughout Scottsdale for her skills as a cosmetic dentist. She plays an active role in every step of the smile enhancement process, beginning with determining which materials to use for dental restorations. At Sonoran Dental Design, we have a commitment to delivering only the best, which is why we feature fine materials like porcelain and zirconia. Take a look at the benefits:
-
Durability
Zirconia and porcelain crowns are just as strong as natural teeth. When one is used to restore your smile, you won't have to worry about it chipping or cracking under the force of your bite. These materials are also highly durable. While some types of restorations only last for five to seven years, restorations made from porcelain or zirconia can last for 15 years or longer when combined with good dental hygiene habits and regular checkups with your Scottsdale dentist.
-
Aesthetics
Porcelain and zirconia are semitranslucent materials. This means that they reflect and absorb light in the same way natural teeth do. You may be familiar with dental restorations that have a conspicuously dull look compared to the surrounding natural teeth. This isn't the case with these restorations—since they can also be precisely color-matched to your tooth shade, it will be almost impossible to tell the difference between them and the real thing.

A Closer Look at CEREC
CEREC is a game-changing dental technology that allows the dentist to treat a tooth, craft the porcelain restoration, and restore the patient's smile in just one visit to our Scottsdale, AZ, office. CEREC technology eliminates the need for temporary crowns and multiple office visits, saving you both time and money.
When providing same-day crowns, we take digital impressions of your teeth with the CEREC Primescan intraoral scanner instead of using the messy putty impressions of the past. These 3D images allow for more precise design and accurate manufacturing of dental restorations, which is carried out entirely by computer-guided tools. The durable ceramic restoration is designed to match the shade of your natural dental enamel, so it both looks beautiful and provides the necessary protection for your tooth.
The Procedure In Action
Treatment Timeline
In most cases, we can treat your tooth and restore it with a crown in a single appointment. Some patients may need a crown made of a stronger material than the dental porcelain used in making CEREC crowns. In these cases, we will have your restoration crafted at an outstanding offsite lab, usually within about two weeks. In the meantime, we will provide a temporary crown.
Receiving a same-day crown involves:
You won't have to wait long to enhance your smile with a porcelain crown. Our in-office milling system makes design, creation, and placement possible in just one appointment.

Are Dental Crowns Covered by Insurance? Explore Your Payment and Financing Options
When dental crowns are used for restorative purposes, like protecting a natural tooth after trauma, they are eligible for insurance coverage. However, crowns are not usually covered when they are used cosmetically, such as to improve the shade of a stained natural tooth. It's also important to mention implant-supported crowns—while the crown will be eligible, the implant will not. While many factors can impact the price, our crowns typically costs between $1,800 and $2,200.
Our Scottsdale practice accepts most major dental insurance plans. We'll even file a claim on your behalf to help you make the most of your coverage. If you're uninsured or concerned about high out-of-pocket costs, we also accept financing through CareCredit®. CareCredit offers loans for healthcare and dentistry with little or no interest. You can make payments in manageable monthly installments so you to get the dental care you need to restore your tooth.

Sonoran Dental Design is the absolute cream of the crop when it comes to dentistry! Dr. Ann Sielicki was very thorough when combing through my dental concerns and gave me a very clear understanding of each and every phase of my recommended treatment from the beginning. I instantly felt a sense of genuine patient care, compassion and transparency. Sonoran Dental Design understands high-quality and exceptional patient care.

View on GoogleThe office presents an air of detail and professionalism. The staff is very welcoming and knows who you are. The technician was concerned with my comfort and was detailed with her assessment and evaluation. As a person that avoided the dentist until necessary the hesitation is gone. I would highly recommend Sonoran Dental and my hygienist Kempa Burd to everyone.
