A dental crown, also known as a cap, covers a tooth to restore it to its normal shape and size, thereby strengthening and improving its overall appearance.
A crown may be recommended to cover and support a tooth with a large filling. A crown can be used to attach a bridge, protect a weak tooth from breaking, or restore one that is already broken.
There are three main types of dental crowns. Each designed for different applications. Metal gold crowns are particularly suitable for posterior teeth exposed to heavy chewing forces.
Porcelain or ceramic crowns, offer excellent aesthetic results and closely match the appearance of natural teeth. They blend seamlessly in with your smile.
Finally, Porcelain fused to metal (PFM) crowns combine the strength of metal with the cosmetic appeal of porcelain. This type of crown is often recommended for load-bearing teeth that are visible when you smile.

I cannot recommend Dr. Krosser and the entire staff at Mondovi Dental enough! I’ve been a very satisfied client since 2018 when I moved from NYC. I have a lot of dental issues - implants, crowns, veneers…and I’ve always felt I was in the best hands! Most recently I had my 20+ year old veneers replaced and they’re absolutely beautiful! The process was painless, fast and easy from start to finish. I’m extremely happy with my smile.
I am very pleased about my experience. Everyone was very kind, polite, and knowledgeable. I went to Mondavi Dental for a second opinion about another dentist's recommendation that I needed 2 root canals with crowns. I was very happy to find out that this work is not necessary!
My family has used the Millburn practice for decades. The staff is friendly and efficient and Scott is a great dentist. I have always been impressed that he is an early adopter of technology to make his practice better for the patient, from digital x-rays earlier than most to in-house preparation of crowns to minimize visits and temporary crowns during reconstructive work. He also has a great "chairside" manner. Five stars!
