Contact UsWhat Are Dental Crowns?
Do you have teeth with significant damage or tooth decay? Our team at Pipe Creek Dental Center can fix those teeth using dental crowns. Dr. Walker treats damaged teeth with the convenience of single-appointment dental crowns to strengthen and protect the visible area of the tooth while returning it to its original size and shape. Crowns are custom made using the advanced E4D treatment system and blend evenly with your natural teeth. They can be attached to single implants to replace individual missing teeth or combined into a unit to function as a bridge. Contact Pipe Creek Dental Center in Pipe Creek, TX to arrange a consultation to find out if dental crowns can restore your smile.

Do I Need A Crown?
Traditionally, a dental crown required two office appointments involving numbing injections and messy molds of the mouth. During the dentist visit, patients will receive a numbing anesthetic, and the tooth will be cleaned and prepared for restoration. During this process with the use of a drill, decayed material and other debris are removed; in some cases, a small amount of healthy tooth structure may also be removed to accommodate the crown. Because the E4D system is equipped to take digital impressions, no uncomfortable molds are needed. This is a great benefit for patients because dental impressions can be uncomfortable and taste bad. Instead, the digital impression of the tooth is then transferred to the on-site milling machine where the new crown is created from a single block of color-matched porcelain. The final stage of this process is ensuring a proper fit and coloration of the crown. It will then be glazed, polished, and bonded to the remaining tooth. Patients leave the Pipe Creek Dental Center office with a restored and balanced bite that looks and feels completely natural.
How Do I Care for my Dental Crown?
Following its placement, your custom crown will be adjusted to feel comfortable in your mouth. Dr. Walker will explain the most effective way to care for your crown and show you home care practices. During your routine appointments at our Pipe Creek, TX facility, one of our professionals will track your restoration and oral wellness. With proper care, a dental restoration should help safeguard your tooth's appearance and function for several years. If your restoration ever feels loose or is no longer attached to your tooth, it is best to reach out to Pipe Creek Dental Center for assistance without delay. Trying to repair or glue it back on yourself may damage your dental crown and tooth.
Pipe Creek Dental Center Reviews
I cannot say enough nice things about this practice. They are responsive, knowledgeable, and most of all, KIND. I used to be afraid of and avoided the dentist, resulting in me needing some extensive work done. They were not judgmental, and just set about getting me fixed up. Both dentists are awesome (hope I never get asked to pick a favorite!), Kaylee is so gentle yet thorough with her cleaning, and Tori is a ray of sunshine every time I’m there. Elise was with me for my afternoon-long procedure and she made it more bearable with her kindness and attention. Save yourself a drive to a big-city dentist and get to know this local gem of a practice!
Very pleased with my first visit, everyone was so friendly and accommodating.
My visits to Pipe Creek Dental Center have always been welcoming, friendly, and professional. Tori always greets me with a pleasant smile and we talk about my flock of chickens until Kaylee calls me back for my cleaning. While Kaylee performs my cleaning, she clearly communicates with me her process to get my pearly whites looking great. Afterwards, she offers helpful tips and patiently answers all of my questions before heading back to the lobby to wrap up my visit with Tori. I cannot recommend Pipe Creek Dental Center enough. From the front desk, the hygienist, and dentists, it's always a wonderful experience!
I have suffered with dental issues for a good portion of my adult life. I've been to many dentist in my lifetime. I've been to ones that are nothing more than insurance and Medicaid mills that are scamming as much money as they can. And I've been to ones that do work that does not last. And then I found pipe Creek dental! Dr Williamson is the absolute best! Her expertise along with her bedside manner is top notch. She listens and talks with you like you're a person and not just another number in the bank account. And then to top it off her staff, like Tori, are absolutely amazing! They communicate with you and will even send you text reminding you that you have your appointment. Which I found very helpful on days that I was forgetting that I had an appointment. I cannot recommend this dental office enough. Thank you to everybody at Pipe Creek dental for the most amazing dental experience I've ever had. Nothing but love for these amazing people!
This place has been amazing!! They take great care of their patients. The staff and Dr are so friendly!! Very very grateful for such a wonderful dentist so close to home. Highly recommend checking this place out next time you need a dentist.
