Do you need one?

When Does a Tooth Actually Need a Crown?

Crowns aren’t always necessary — Dr. Prigmore and Dr. Singh will tell you honestly if a simpler fix will work. But when a crown is the right call, it’s the most durable way to save a tooth long-term. You likely need one if:

Cracked or broken tooth

A crack that goes below the gumline or a break too large for a filling to hold properly.

After a root canal

Root canal treated teeth become brittle over time. A crown protects them and extends their lifespan significantly.

Large decay or failing filling

When too much tooth structure is gone for a filling to be stable, a crown is the stronger solution.

Nobody can tell you're in treatment Worn down from grinding

Severely worn teeth lose function and aesthetics. Crowns rebuild them to proper height and shape.

Topping a dental implant

The final step of a dental implant is attaching a custom crown — the visible tooth that completes your smile.

Cosmetic improvement

Severely misshapen or discolored teeth that can’t be fixed with whitening or veneers alone.

Which crown is right for you?

Types of Crowns We Offer in Fairfield

Not all crowns are the same material. Dr. Singh or Dr. Prigmore will recommend the right type based on which tooth it is, how much you chew on that side, and what matters most to you — appearance, strength, or cost.
Crown Type Best For Notes
Porcelain (all-ceramic) Front teeth, visible areas Most natural looking — blends perfectly with surrounding teeth
Zirconia Back teeth, heavy chewers Extremely strong and natural looking — our most popular option
Porcelain-fused-to-metal Any tooth, budget-conscious Strong and affordable — slight metal edge can show over time
Same-day (in-office milled) Patients who can't wait Designed, milled and placed in one visit using digital scan

Missing a tooth?

Dental Bridges — Fixed Tooth Replacement

A dental bridge fills the gap where a tooth is missing. The replacement tooth is held in place by crowns on the teeth on either side — creating a fixed, permanent-feeling restoration that looks and functions like a real tooth.
Bridges make sense when you’re missing one or two teeth in a row, the neighboring teeth are healthy enough to support a crown, and you want a fixed solution without implant surgery. They’re faster and often more affordable than implants.
The alternative is a dental implant — Dr. Singh will walk you through both options and what makes sense for your situation and budget.

What to expect

The Crown or Bridge Process at Fairfield Dentistry

01

Consultation & X-rays

Dr. Singh or Dr. Prigmore examines your tooth, takes X-rays, and recommends the right restoration. They’ll tell you honestly what you need and why.

02

Tooth preparation

The tooth is gently shaped under local anesthesia to create the ideal fit for your crown. You won’t feel discomfort during this step.

03

Digital impressions

No messy putty. A quick digital scan captures the exact shape of your tooth and surrounding bite.

04

Temporary crown placed

A temporary crown protects your tooth while the permanent one is crafted in the lab — usually 2 to 3 weeks.

05

Final fitting & cementing

The permanent crown is placed, checked for bite, adjusted if needed, and cemented. You leave with a fully restored tooth.

06

Same-day option

For qualifying cases, we mill the crown in-office using your digital scan and place it the same appointment. No temporary, no second visit.

Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions —
Invisalign in Fairfield, CA

Dental crowns at Fairfield Dentistry typically range from $900 to $1,800 per tooth depending on the material and location. Most dental insurance plans cover approximately 50% of crown costs after your deductible. We offer flexible payment plans and accept most major insurance. Dr. Singh or Dr. Prigmore will give you an exact cost estimate at your consultation.
With proper care, dental crowns typically last 10 to 15 years or longer. Zirconia and porcelain crowns are extremely durable and can last 20 years or more. The lifespan depends on your oral hygiene and whether you grind your teeth. We use high quality materials and custom fit every crown to maximise longevity.
Yes — Fairfield Dentistry offers same-day crowns for qualifying cases. Using advanced digital scanning and in-office milling technology, we can design, fabricate and place a permanent crown in a single appointment. No temporary crown, no second visit, no waiting 2 to 3 weeks. Ask Dr. Singh or Dr. Prigmore if you are a candidate when you call (707) 422-3500.
The crown procedure itself is not painful — we use local anesthesia so you should not feel discomfort during preparation. After the anesthetic wears off you may experience mild sensitivity for a few days. Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the process is. Sedation options are also available if you have dental anxiety.
A dental crown covers and protects a single existing tooth. A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring a prosthetic tooth to crowns on the teeth on either side of the gap. If you still have your tooth root, you likely need a crown. If the tooth is gone entirely, a bridge or dental implant are the main options.

Most dental insurance plans classify crowns as a major restorative procedure and cover approximately 50% of the cost after your annual deductible. Some plans have a waiting period before covering major work. Our front desk will verify your specific benefits before your appointment so you know exactly what to expect. We also offer financing for any remaining balance.
