About Dental Crowns & Bridges at Smiles of Moorpark
Dental crowns and bridges are time-tested restorative solutions that repair damaged teeth and replace missing ones. At Smiles of Moorpark, we use the finest materials and advanced techniques to create restorations that are both functional and beautiful.
A dental crown (also called a cap) completely covers a damaged tooth, restoring its shape, strength, size, and appearance. Crowns are recommended for teeth that are cracked, severely decayed, worn down, or have had root canal treatment. We also use crowns to complete dental implant restorations.
A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by using crowns on the adjacent teeth (called abutments) to support artificial teeth (called pontics) in between. Bridges are an excellent option when dental implants aren't possible or desired.
We offer a variety of crown materials including all-porcelain for the most natural appearance, zirconia for superior strength, and porcelain-fused-to-metal for durability. We'll recommend the best material based on the tooth's location and your specific needs.
Our crowns are custom-designed to match your natural teeth in color, shape, and size. Same-day technology may be an option after an evaluation; timing depends on the tooth, restoration, and clinical needs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Crowns & Bridges
How long do crowns last?
With proper care, dental crowns typically last 10-15 years or longer. Some patients keep their crowns for 25+ years. Avoid chewing ice and hard objects to maximize crown lifespan.
Is getting a crown painful?
The procedure is done under local anesthesia, so you won't feel pain during treatment. Afterward, you may have some sensitivity for a few days, which is easily managed.
What's the difference between crowns and veneers?
Crowns cover the entire tooth and are used for damaged or weakened teeth. Veneers cover only the front surface and are primarily cosmetic. We'll recommend the best option for your situation.
How much do crowns cost in Moorpark?
Fees depend on the material, tooth, preparation, and complexity. We can review a case-specific estimate and available payment options before treatment.
