At Lakeview Dental, we specialize in restoring damaged or decayed teeth with high-quality dental crowns. We use the highest quality materials that will increase durability and also look amazing. Our aesthetic crowns include 5x the depth of shading as typical crowns, so they will look very natural. Led by Dr. Dallin Burk and Nickie K. Lê, DDS, our team is dedicated to providing durable, aesthetic, and functional dental crowns tailored to meet the unique needs of each patient.
What Are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are custom-made caps placed over a tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are a versatile solution, used in a variety of restorative dentistry procedures to address issues such as tooth decay, damage, and cosmetic imperfections. They are designed to fit snugly above the gum line, fully encasing the visible portion of the tooth.
The Benefits of Dental Crowns
Dental crowns offer numerous benefits, including:
- Durability: With proper care, dental crowns can last many years, providing a long-term solution for damaged teeth.
- Aesthetics: Our Arrowhead Elite aesthetic crowns mimic the translucency and color of natural teeth, to a much deeper degree than the average dental crown, enhancing your smile's appearance.
- Functionality: Crowns restore the tooth's functionality, allowing you to chew and speak comfortably.
- Protection: By encasing the tooth, crowns protect it from further decay, damage, and wear.
Types of Dental Crowns We Offer
At Lakeview Dental, we provide a selection of crown materials to suit every need and preference, including:
Elite Crowns
Ideal for front tooth restorations, Elite crowns offer superior aesthetic qualities, perfectly matching the natural color of your teeth. Ask your family to guess which one is the crown and they’ll have a hard time with our unique Elite crowns.
Porcelain Crowns
Porcelain crowns are renowned for their durability and the ability to replicate the natural translucency of tooth enamel, making them an excellent choice for both front and back teeth.
Both ceramic and porcelain crowns are favored for their natural appearance and compatibility with the body, making them excellent choices for those seeking aesthetically pleasing dental restorations.
Gold Crowns
Gold is an ideal material that mimics the dynamic qualities of a natural tooth: strength, shock absorption, and adaptability. For the very back teeth in the mouth, gold crowns are the best choice for your oral health, so we recommend and perform gold crowns for the non-visible teeth in the mouth.

Getting a dental crown at Lakeview Dental involves a few straightforward steps:
- Consultation: Dr. Burk or Dr. Lê will assess your needs and discuss the best material for your crown.
- Preparation: The tooth is prepared for the crown, and an impression is made to ensure a custom fit.
- Fitting: Once your crown is ready, it's securely fitted and adjusted to ensure perfect alignment with your bite and a natural look.
