Dental Crowns

A dental crown is one of the most versatile treatments Dr. Nickolas Felten offers, protecting a damaged tooth or improving its shape and color. Blue Jay Family Dentistry provides crowns throughout Maplewood, Minnesota.

What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over your natural tooth, restoring its strength, shape, and appearance. Crowns can protect a weakened tooth, complete a root canal, or anchor a bridge in place of a missing tooth. Dr. Felten designs each crown to blend naturally with your smile while standing up to everyday biting and chewing.

Ways We Use Dental Crowns

Damaged Tooth Restoration

Crowns reinforce teeth that are cracked, worn down, or too damaged for a standard filling to repair effectively.

Crowns After Root Canal Therapy

A crown protects a tooth that has been treated with root canal therapy, restoring its function and durability.

Crown and Bridge Support

Crowns anchor dental bridges in place, replacing a missing tooth while supporting the teeth on either side.

Cosmetic Crown Enhancement

Crowns improve the color, shape, and alignment of a tooth that cannot be corrected with whitening or bonding.

Digital Impressions & Fit Body

Dr. Felten uses digital scanning to capture an accurate impression, helping ensure your crown fits comfortably and precisely.

Long-Term Crown Care

With routine cleanings and exams, a well-placed crown can protect your tooth and support your smile for years to come.

The Importance of Dental Crowns

A damaged or weakened tooth left untreated can lead to bigger problems down the road. Protecting Your Natural Tooth: A crown reinforces what remains of your natural tooth structure, often helping you avoid an extraction. Restoring Full Function: Crowns rebuild your bite so you can chew comfortably and evenly again. Preventing Further Damage: Covering a cracked or weakened tooth helps stop the crack from spreading or the tooth from breaking further.

Consult was great, service was top notch & pricing was fair. Dr Felten and staff were a great find in the neighborhood. I used to drive 45 minutes to my dentist for years, I wish I would’ve called them sooner. They don’t disappoint

I am a senior citizen who had a troublesome wisdom tooth that needed to come out. My experience was good and the results are great so far. To say I was cautious about the whole procedure is an understatement; but Dr. Felton and his assistant went above board to assure my comfort. Many, many thanks.
