Our Patients Love How We Care for Their Teeth
“This dentist office is top tier when it comes to treatment planning and dental advise. The staff are all professional and most of all very welcoming. I didn't feel forced or obligated to anything, it was a friendly vibe, especially their manager. She knew her stuff and what her providers specialize in. They offer treatment that can be done in one visit, compared to all the offices i went too. Those types of treatment take 3 to 4 visits. I was extremely impressed with all their high tech technology as well. definitely a 10 out of 10.”

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Crowns in Brooklyn, NY
How long do dental crowns last?
Dental crowns are a long-lasting solution designed to restore and protect your teeth. On average, they can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years or more when properly cared for. The exact lifespan of your crown depends on several factors, including the material used, your oral hygiene habits, and how much wear and tear the crown is exposed to over time. Regular dental checkups, cleanings, and good home care (like brushing twice a day and flossing daily) can all help extend the life of your crown.
Can I eat normally with a crown?
Yes, you can eat normally with a dental crown once it has been securely bonded into place. Crowns are designed to restore the strength and function of your natural tooth, so you should be able to chew and bite comfortably. That said, it’s wise to avoid chewing extremely hard foods like ice, hard candy, or unpopped popcorn kernels, which can put unnecessary stress on the crown. Sticky foods like caramel or chewing gum can also loosen the crown over time. Being mindful of your diet helps protect your restoration and prolong its life.
How do I care for my crown?
Caring for a dental crown is very similar to caring for your natural teeth. Daily brushing and flossing are essential to prevent plaque buildup around the crown and to protect the underlying tooth structure. Although the crown itself won’t decay, the tooth beneath it still can, especially at the margins where the crown meets the tooth. We also recommend visiting our office for regular checkups and professional cleanings. Our team will monitor your crown for any signs of wear, damage, or loosening and make adjustments if needed to keep your smile in top shape.
Do crowns feel different from natural teeth?
At first, it’s completely normal to notice a slight difference between your crown and your natural teeth, especially in terms of texture or bite alignment. This sensation usually fades quickly as your mouth adjusts to the new restoration. At our Brooklyn Heights office, each crown is custom-crafted to match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth for the most seamless fit possible. We take extra care during placement to ensure your bite feels comfortable and functions correctly. Most patients report that, within a few days, their crown feels just like a natural part of their smile and often forget it’s even there.
