Crowns, Bridges & Veneers
Customized Restorations for Every Lifestyle
A great restoration is more than just a "cap" – it’s a blend of bio-compatible engineering and artistic craftsmanship. Whether you are looking for the red-carpet glow of an all-ceramic veneer, the iron-clad strength of Zirconia for heavy chewing, or the time-tested reliability of a gold finish, we offer a spectrum of materials designed to fit your unique anatomy and aesthetic goals. We don’t just fix teeth; we restore your confidence to eat, speak, and smile without a second thought.
Material Types
Zirconia
The Powerhouse restoration, known commonly as “Ceramic Steel”. Zirconia is the ultimate choice for patients who need maximum durability without sacrificing aesthetics. Engineered from monolithic zirconium dioxide, these are designed to withstand the heaviest of biting forces. They are the ideal choice for molars and for patients who may struggle with teeth grinding (bruxism).
Material Options
ArgenZ High Translucent Plus (HT+): The strongest ceramic material that we offer. This material is incredible for strength, while still allowing for a high level of translucency. This material is versatile, utilized from anterior layered restorations to implant-abutted full-mouth restorations.
Strength in Megapascals: 1,250 Mpa
Yttria Level: 3Y and 4Y
Seat Process: Cementation
1.
ArgenZ Super Translucent (ST): This material was created to be more aesthetically pleasing through high-end light refraction, while not sacrificing strength. Commonly used for single-unit restorations and small-span maxillary bridges. The advantage of this material is the ability to better match shades and varying levels of translucency.
Strength in Megapascals: 850 Mpa
Yttria Level: 5Y and 6Y
Seat Process: Cementation or Bonding
2.
e.Max
e.Max (Lithium Disilicate) is widely considered the gold standard for aesthetic restorations, known for its ability to mimic light-reflecting properties and the "chameleon effect" of natural enamel.
Material Options
Ivoclar Vivadent, Milled CAD e.Max: We utilize state-of-the-art, high-precision milling to fabricate these restorations. Our expert technicians then apply custom finishing touches before a final permanent bake.
Strength in Megapascals: 530 Mpa
Seat Process: Bond or Cementation
+ A significant benefit of this technique is secure storage of the initial scan, which serves as a precise reference for any future dental work, as well as minimizing the turnaround time for production.
1.
Ivoclar Vivadent, Pressed e.Max: The old school lost wax technique results in the most intimate fit possible.
Strength in Magapascals: 450 Mpa
Seat Process: Bond
2.
Porcelain Fused to Metal (PFM)
Porcelain Fused to Metal (PFM) has been a staple restoration in the dental industry for decades, due to its versatility and longevity. While there are other options available, there is a reason PFMs are still a sought-after product. The metal substructure creates a very durable, tight fit, while offering the aesthetics of a beautiful porcelain exterior.
Strength in Megapascals: ~200 Mpa (high flexural strength)
Alloy Percentage: 58.2% Au
Gold
The “Gold Standard.” At Crown Creations, nothing brings our motto "We Treat You Like Royalty" to life more than a beautifully crafted gold crown.
Standing the test of time, gold remains the preferred choice for longevity and oral health. While its luster provides a prestigious feel, gold is actually the most tooth-friendly material available in the dental industry. The soft malleability of the material reduces wear on opposing dentition over time, allowing a gold crown to last a lifetime if cared for properly.
Strength in Megapascals: 340 Mpa (high flexural strength)
Provisional / Temp Restoration
Provisionals are more than a temporary solution, but rather a diagnostic blueprint for the final restoration. At Crown Creations, we treat provisionalization as the essential blueprint for restorative success. By leveraging both Subtractive Milling and Additive 3D Printing technologies, we provide clinicians with tailored solutions for every stage of treatment.
Strength in Megapascals: 100 - 140 Mpa
PMMA (Polymethyl Methacrylate): Superior color stability and polishability over extended wear periods (3–6+ months). Its high-density surface resists plaque accumulation and staining from coffee, tea, or wine.
Composite: Clinicians are able to add material chairside.
