If you’ve had doubts about the wisdom of filling your mouth with metal, we understand. At Image Dental, we take a safer approach to dentistry by providing metal-free crowns to restore your teeth, without sending you home anxious about potential toxins.

Our reliable dental care restores broken and damaged teeth with long-lasting natural solutions that bring your smile back to its full shine.

Restoring Your Tooth’s Look, Feel, and Function

Broken or damaged teeth aren’t just a minor annoyance. Over time, they may affect your overall mouth structure and lead to further problems in your teeth, gums, or even throughout your body.

Crowns are custom-made covers that we place around the tooth to restore both your appearance and your mouth’s proper function. You’ll look and feel like you have a natural tooth, since we mold each one to fit in with your bite as a whole. Patients often have crowns put in after a root canal or when responding to chipped, cracked, decaying, or misshapen teeth.
NEW Patients

Afterwards, there’s no need to avoid any of the foods you enjoy. We’ll equip you with durable, long-term dental work that will last well into the future with proper care and cleaning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are metal-free dental crowns as strong as traditional crowns?

Yes. Modern metal-free crowns are designed to provide excellent strength and durability while closely replicating the look and feel of natural teeth. When carefully planned and placed, they can perform just as reliably as traditional crowns without introducing metal into the mouth.

Why does holistic dentistry prefer metal-free crown materials?

Holistic dentistry considers how dental materials interact with the body as a whole. Some patients prefer to avoid metals due to sensitivities or personal health considerations. Metal-free crowns support a more biocompatible approach while still delivering long-term function and aesthetics.

Will a dental crown change how my bite feels?

A properly designed crown should feel natural and work in harmony with your bite. Bite balance is carefully assessed to help reduce unnecessary strain on surrounding teeth, muscles, and jaw joints.

Can crowns help prevent further dental or structural issues?

By restoring the shape and strength of a damaged tooth, a crown can help protect it from additional wear or fracture and support overall bite stability when part of a comprehensive treatment plan.

How long do metal-free crowns typically last?

With good oral hygiene, regular check-ups, and healthy habits, crowns can last many years. Longevity depends on factors such as bite forces, grinding habits, and overall oral health.

Are crowns suitable for patients who grind or clench their teeth?

Crowns may still be suitable, but additional protective measures such as night splints may be recommended. Managing grinding helps protect both natural teeth and restorations.

How do you ensure crowns align with whole-body health?

Crown design takes into account jaw function, bite forces, and overall oral balance. This broader assessment supports comfort, function, and long-term oral wellbeing rather than focusing on the tooth alone.
