Indications

When is a dental crown needed?

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.

01

Fractured tooth

Major fractures or weakened cusps at risk of breaking further.

02

After endodontic treatment

Molars and premolars with little structure left usually need protection to prevent fractures.

03

Extensive decay

When a regular filling no longer provides enough strength.

04

Severe wear

From bruxism or erosion, as part of a broader rehabilitation.

05

Deteriorated old crown

With leakage, decay, fracture or poor fit.

06

On an implant

The crown replaces the visible part of the missing tooth. See dental implants.

Diagnosis first

A crown or a more conservative option?

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.

A crown is usually indicated if

  • 01

    The tooth has lost a lot of structure

    Due to decay, fracture or a very large old filling.

  • 02

    It is a molar or premolar with a root canal

    It takes heavy chewing forces and needs full coverage.

  • 03

    There are high forces or bruxism

    The crown distributes the load better and protects the remaining tissue.

Another option may be enough if

  • 01

    The damage is localized

    A composite filling or an inlay can preserve more tooth tissue.

  • 02

    It is a front tooth with good structure

    Sometimes a bonded restoration or a veneer.

  • 03

    The nerve is affected

    First comes the Endodontic treatment; then we decide on the final restoration.

Material comparison

Zirconia, lithium disilicate or porcelain-fused-to-metal

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.

After placement

How to care for your crown so it lasts longer

Clean the edge

Brush twice a day and floss. The tooth under the crown can still get cavities.

Night protection

If you clench or grind your teeth, wear the prescribed night guard. Avoid biting ice or hard objects.

Regular check-ups

See us if it hurts to bite, the crown feels loose or your gums bleed.

Prices, materials, pain, lifespan and care. If your question isn't here, message us.

Ask a question
How much does a dental crown cost in Lima?

At 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.

What types of dental crowns are there and which one suits me?

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.

Does getting a dental crown hurt?

Usually not. The tooth is prepared under local anesthesia. Afterwards there may be temporary sensitivity, especially if the tooth still has its nerve.

Is a crown always needed after endodontic treatment?

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.

How long does a dental crown last?

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.

How long does the treatment take?

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.

Is a fiber post needed?

Not always. A post is used when there is little structure left to hold the build-up. It is only placed when needed.

What should I do if my crown comes off?

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.

Can an old crown be replaced?

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.

Where can I get a dental crown in Lima?

In San Borja (Av. de las Artes Norte 364, 5th floor) and Barranco (Av. San Martín 459). Book on WhatsApp at the clinic you prefer.
