What Are Dental Crowns?
A dental crown is a custom-made, tooth-shaped cap that covers a damaged, decayed, or weakened tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and function. Our team at Suite 905 often recommends dental crown procedures to protect teeth that have suffered extensive decay or fractures, strengthen teeth after more intensive treatments, and restore worn-down or misshapen teeth. Made from porcelain, ceramic, or other materials, tooth crowns allow patients to preserve and protect damaged teeth while maintaining a natural appearance and proper bite alignment. Learn more about the benefits of dental crowns and take a step toward preserving your smile by scheduling a consultation with Dr. Svetlana Orit Faradjewa or Dr. Sheila Faradjewa at our practice in New York, NY.
How Does a Dental Crown Procedure Work?
The process of getting a dental crown usually takes two visits to our office. During your first visit, we'll examine your mouth and capture digital x-rays to assess your tooth's condition. If the tooth is badly damaged or has had a root canal, a build-up filling may be needed to create enough structure to support the crown. If the tooth is still intact but weakened, we'll trim away part of the enamel to make room so your crown fits comfortably. Once the tooth is ready, we'll take impressions and cap it with a temporary dental crown to protect it while your permanent restoration is prepared. When your custom tooth crown is ready, we'll schedule a follow-up appointment at our New York, NY office where we'll place the permanent crown and ensure it fits properly. Before you leave, we'll talk about how you can take care of your dental crown to prolong its life. With proper care, including brushing, flossing, and routine dental cleanings, a well-made crown can last for 10 – 15 years or even longer.

Dental Crowns Reviews
I can’t recommend Dr. Orit Faradjewa enough! She is truly a phenomenal dentist. She is so kind, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. From the moment you walk into her office, you feel comfortable and well taken care of. I had a very complicated crown procedure, and she handled it with such skill and care. She took the time to explain everything clearly, made sure I was comfortable throughout the process, and the results were excellent. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and warm personality really set her apart. I only have the best things to say about her and her practice. Highly recommend!
Svetlana and Sheila are fantastic dentists. Our entire family goes exclusively to them for our dental care. They are highly skilled professionals—and, most importantly, we trust them completely. There is absolutely no deception; everything is straightforward, with no unnecessary treatments prescribed. I am deeply grateful to Svetlana and Sheila for the care and dedication they show to every single patient.
I can’t say enough good things!! Wish I could give them ten stars!!
