Dental Crowns in Castle Rock, CO | Oakwood Dental

Oakwood Dental · Castle Rock, CO

A broken or severely decayed tooth does not have to mean multiple appointments and weeks of waiting. At Oakwood Dental in Castle Rock, CO, we offer same-day dental crowns using advanced digital fabrication technology.

What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a cap that covers the entire visible portion of a tooth above the gumline. Crowns restore a tooth's shape, size, strength, and appearance — one of the most versatile restorations in dentistry.

When Is a Crown Necessary?

A tooth is cracked, fractured, or severely chipped
Extensive decay that a filling cannot restore
After a root canal to protect the treated tooth
To support a dental bridge or top a dental implant

Same-Day Crowns at Oakwood Dental

Traditional crowns require two appointments and a two-week lab wait. Our Castle Rock office uses digital scanning and in-office milling technology to design, mill, and place your permanent porcelain crown in a single appointment of 1-2 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a dental crown cost in Castle Rock?
Most dental insurance plans cover a portion of crown treatment. We offer Cherry financing for any out-of-pocket balance. Call 303-688-3860 for a personalized estimate.
Does getting a crown hurt?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. Some patients experience mild sensitivity for a few days after, which resolves on its own.

What Castle Rock Patients Should Know About Dental Crowns

Oakwood Dental offers same-day CEREC crowns milled in-office from a solid block of dental-grade ceramic — no messy impressions, no temporary crown, no second visit. Your crown is designed, milled, and permanently bonded in a single appointment, typically under two hours. The ceramic shade is matched to your surrounding teeth so the restoration blends naturally.

Crowns are recommended when a tooth is too damaged for a filling — after a large fracture, following root canal therapy, or when an old filling has failed and taken significant tooth structure with it. They’re also used to cap dental implants and anchor dental bridges. Dr. Jones and Dr. Zendig assess every case individually; a crown is only recommended when it’s genuinely the best long-term option for the tooth.

Patients throughout Castle Rock, Castle Pines, and Parker choose Oakwood Dental for crowns because same-day CEREC technology means they spend less time in the dental chair and away from work. Most dental insurance plans cover crowns at 50% after deductible. Our team will run a pre-authorization with your insurer before the appointment so you know exactly what to expect on the bill.

How long do dental crowns last?
CEREC ceramic crowns typically last 10-15+ years with proper care. Avoid chewing ice or using your crowned tooth to bite fingernails or packaging. Crowns don’t decay, but the tooth underneath can — which is why brushing at the gum line and flossing around the crown remain important.
Does getting a crown hurt?
The tooth is fully numbed before any preparation, so the procedure itself is painless. Some patients experience sensitivity in the days following crown placement as the tooth adjusts. Over-the-counter ibuprofen handles this easily. If sensitivity persists beyond two weeks, call our office.
What’s the difference between a crown and a veneer?
A crown covers the entire tooth (360 degrees) and is used when the tooth is structurally compromised. A veneer covers only the front surface and is purely cosmetic, used on healthy teeth to change shape or color. If your tooth has significant decay, a fracture, or has had a root canal, a crown is the right choice over a veneer.
