We confirm the plan at your evaluation (S/100). You can send us a photo or X-ray of your tooth on WhatsApp.
A crown covers and protects a tooth that has lost strength, structure or shape. Not every damaged tooth needs one: first we check how much healthy tissue remains.
Major fractures or weakened cusps at risk of breaking further.
Molars and premolars with little structure left usually need protection to prevent fractures.
When a regular filling no longer provides enough strength.
From bruxism or erosion, as part of a broader rehabilitation.
With leakage, decay, fracture or poor fit.
The crown replaces the visible part of the missing tooth. See dental implants.

We aim to protect the tooth while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible. That is why a crown is not always the first option.
Due to decay, fracture or a very large old filling.
It takes heavy chewing forces and needs full coverage.
The crown distributes the load better and protects the remaining tissue.
A composite filling or an inlay can preserve more tooth tissue.
Sometimes a bonded restoration or a veneer.
First comes the Endodontic treatment; then we decide on the final restoration.
The most expensive material is not always the most suitable. The best crown is the one that fits your tooth, your bite and your aesthetic expectations.

Ask a questionAt V&C Odontólogos the price is fixed by material: porcelain-fused-to-metal S/850, lithium disilicate S/1,200 and zirconia S/1,350 per crown, with fabrication and placement included. If the tooth needs a root canal, post or core build-up, it is quoted separately.
We offer porcelain-fused-to-metal, lithium disilicate and zirconia crowns. Zirconia stands out for its strength, lithium disilicate for its aesthetics, and porcelain-fused-to-metal is the traditional option. The choice depends on the tooth location, the bite and the available space.
Usually not. The tooth is prepared under local anesthesia. Afterwards there may be temporary sensitivity, especially if the tooth still has its nerve.
Not always. Molars and premolars with little structure usually need one to prevent fractures; some front teeth can be restored another way. We decide after examining the tooth.
As a general reference, 10 to 15 years with good hygiene and check-ups. It may last more or less depending on the bite, bruxism and the condition of the tooth. It is not a guarantee.
It depends on the diagnosis and the material. Some cases are finished in a few visits; others first need a root canal, gum treatment or core build-up.
Not always. A post is used when there is little structure left to hold the build-up. It is only placed when needed.
Keep it and book an evaluation. Do not glue it at home: the tooth, the fit and any decay or fracture must be checked before re-cementing it.
Yes, when there is decay, leakage, fracture, poor fit or an aesthetic problem. If it works well, there is no need to replace it just because of its age.
