Porcelain Crowns
Porcelain crowns or "caps" are sometimes used in our practice today. Because the enamel has to be totally removed for a cap, the more conservative porcelain veneer is generally the treatment of choice. However, when teeth are badly broken or replacement crowns are needed, porcelain crowns are the recommended treatment. Dr. Hollar prefers to use all-porcelain crowns over crowns made of porcelain fused to metal. The all-porcelain crowns are much more aesthetic, and do not have the ugly black line at the gumline. The all-porcelain crown can be made to match the light transmitting properties of natural teeth and will not stain or change color. The porcelain crown is very strong and carries our world-class ten year warranty. All of our porcelain crowns are made by our in-house dental technicians, with the finished work performed by Dr. Hollar. Visit our photo gallery to see more fabulous results.

This is Susan, and her beautiful new smile. Susan had teeth that were damaged, and others that were crooked and misaligned. Susan's old crowns were fake looking and had discoloration at the gumline. New Porcelain Crowns give her a brilliant and very natural looking smile.
"I had no idea I could have such beautiful teeth. Now I'm not self-conscious about showing a big, radiant smile"
