Take control of your smile.
Request Crown Creations.
Welcome to our Patient Hub.
If your dentist referred you here or you found us while researching your dental restoration, you’re in the right place. Crown Creations exists to support you, your dentist, and the final result you see in the mirror.
Who We Are
Crown Creations is a dental laboratory, meaning we create the crown, veneer, implant restoration, or appliance that your dentist will later place (or “seat”) in your mouth.
We work closely with licensed dental professionals to fabricate precise, high-quality restorations using advanced technology and trusted materials. While we play a critical role in how your restoration looks and performs, it’s important to know that we do not provide dental treatment or perform procedures. By law, restorations must be placed by a licensed dentist, who is responsible for diagnosing your needs and performing any clinical work.
What many patients don’t realize is that you have a choice in your dental care. You are allowed to request which dental laboratory your dentist uses. If quality, transparency, and craftsmanship matter to you, you can ask your dentist to have your restoration made by Crown Creations, and we’re happy to collaborate with your provider to help deliver the best possible result.
If you need help finding a dentist in your area, we can help point you in the right direction.
Why Choose Crown Creations
Choosing the right dental solution can feel complex, and we want you to feel comfortable asking questions. Your understanding and confidence matter to us.
Our team is made up of master technicians and laboratory specialists dedicated to fabricating the precise, high-quality restorations your doctor has prescribed. We focus on materials, design, and craftsmanship, but we do not provide medical care or dental advice.
At Crown Creations, we believe patients deserve to understand what’s going into their smile.

Be a Part of Your Own Smile
Your smile is personal, and you should have a voice in how it looks.
At Crown Creations, we believe patients should be involved in the process whenever possible. Depending on your case, you may have the opportunity to:
Choose the shape of your teeth
✔
Choose the color of your teeth
✔
View a virtual video preview of what your smile may look like once completed
✔
Speak directly with one of our experts, in person, to ask questions and learn more about your restoration
✔
Some patients even have the opportunity to meet with Max, one of our senior technicians and leaders, to discuss aesthetics, materials, and preferences in greater detail.
We also believe patients should understand what materials are being used. Crown Creations does not use low-quality zirconia or shortcut materials. We select only high-quality, trusted materials available on the market. If you have a specific request or concern, we encourage you to call and ask!
Use a lab that favors you.
We talk with patients one-on-one and work to help you restore your smile or create the smile you’ve always wanted. For those who are curious, we also offer the option to schedule a tour of our lab. Meet the team, see where your restoration is made, and learn more about the process behind your care.
Custom Shade Appointments
Sometimes achieving the perfect match requires a closer look.
Step 1: Dentist Referral
For a variety of reasons, your dentist may have difficulty predicting how the final shade of your restoration will look once completed. In certain cases, they may recommend a Custom Shade Appointment at Crown Creations so we can work directly with you to achieve the result you expect.
Please note that this will be an additional charge, as it takes time for our specialized technician to consult with you. As a result, your Dentist may add this to your total bill if you elect to get a custom shade.
Step 2: Schedule Your Visit
If your dentist recommends a custom shade, simply give us a call to schedule an appointment at your earliest convenience.
Step 3: Your Custom Shade Experience
Appointments typically take 10–15 minutes. During your visit, we’ll:
Explain our process in clear, simple terms
✔
Discuss preferences for color, shape, and aesthetic details
✔
Take photos of your smile for future reference
✔
Answer any other questions you may have
✔
Step 4: Fabrication
Once the shade and details are finalized, your restoration continues through our production process with precision and care.
Step 5: Delivery & Placement
When finished, we deliver the restoration directly to your dentist’s office. When it’s placed, the shade will match seamlessly giving you a natural, confident smile.
