Gold Dental provides dental crowns for patients in Petersburg, VA who have cracked, broken, severely decayed, or weakened teeth. A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits completely over a damaged tooth, restoring its shape, strength, and appearance. Crowns are one of the most effective ways to save a tooth that would otherwise need to be extracted.
We use tooth-colored crowns that match the shade of your natural teeth, making them virtually indistinguishable from surrounding teeth. Dental crowns are commonly used after root canal treatment to protect the restored tooth, to cover a tooth with a very large filling, to protect a cracked tooth from splitting further, or to anchor a dental bridge in place.
The crown process typically takes two visits to our Petersburg office. At the first visit, the tooth is prepared, an impression is taken, and a temporary crown is placed. At the second visit, the custom-fabricated permanent crown is cemented into place. We make sure your crown fits comfortably and matches your bite before you leave.
Virginia Medicaid covers dental crowns in qualifying clinical situations. Our team will check your coverage and obtain any necessary pre-authorizations before proceeding with treatment. We accept Medicaid, Medicare Advantage, and most dental insurance plans. Call Gold Dental at 804-732-0056 or visit us at 9 Holly Hill Dr, Petersburg VA 23805. Office hours are Monday 9AM–4:30PM, Thursday 9AM–4:30PM, and Saturday 10AM–4PM.
