Dental Crowns
About Dental Crowns
If a single tooth is damaged or worn down, it can be protected and strengthened with a high-quality dental crown. Also known as a cap, crowns are custom made to fit over your tooth and match the color of your surrounding teeth for a seamless and natural appearance. At MINT dentistry, we offer dental crowns to treat large cavities, protect weak teeth, restore cracked teeth, and cover discolored teeth. Our team of board-certified dental professionals uses high-grade porcelain crowns that look natural and improve your overall smile. MINT dentistry patients have the most gorgeous smiles. To get your own sexy MINT smile, schedule a consultation at MINT dentistry and learn more about how a dental crown can improve the overall health and appearance of your smile.
Best Candidates
Dental crowns may be needed in a variety of situations. They can be used to keep a tooth (weakened by decay) from breaking or they can hold parts of a tooth together that have already cracked. Crowns can also be used to fix a tooth that is loose or extremely worn down. They can serve as a covering and support for a tooth with a large cavity that cannot support a normal filling, to hold a dental bridge in place, and to cover misshapen or discolored teeth. MINT dentistry crowns are made of top-quality porcelain and are secured with state-of-the-art techniques and advanced technology to ensure a beautiful result.

I came to get a second opinion here...and I love this place. This place is pretty amazing. They work with you when it come to prices & making payments. They even offer dental insurance. I have my own, and they are in my network. The staff really does their best to make you feel at ease with their really down-to-earth personalities and weren't hesitant to answer all and Any questions. They make you feel welcomed and cared for. They even call you after the procedures to check in your healing progress!!! They offer music of your choosing to relax to, and even TV. The staff is always kind and welcoming. I was able to get half my teeth a deep cleaning the same day I came in to visit. (I haven't had one ever. So that was an experience ๐ณ but pretty pain free), and I still need to get the other half another day (because that's how my insurance works. Thank God though cus I don't think I could have handled my whole mouth.lol plus this way I got to see the big difference and miss Laura the hygienist sure is thorough!) Soon I'll be able to get a root canal, filling and my first porcelain crown ever. Plus fill in a few cavities. I was nervous about the whole dental plan, at first, but the Dentist, the manager and the assistants have really made me feel cared for. I loved how the Dentist's first question was 'what did I needed/wanted. What were my concerns'!๐ Instead of being so impersonal, just checking me, and jump into telling me what I "need." (Like a bridge that I don't need or want. Which is what my first opinion did.) Looks like I'll be visiting Mint for the next couple of weeks, and it'll be worth it. They are now my primary go-to-Dentist. ******UPDATE: Don't get too attached to the staff...they change a lot....not sure why....so be kind. I'm just thankful my dentist is still the same person. Please like my review if it has helped you.

I arrived in Galveston for a vacation and one of my crowns fell out and having no tooth there was very upsetting to me. I called around all over Galveston and nobody could take me that day except for Mint Dentistry. They got me in that very morning and got my tooth put back in and glued some other ones together to help support it. All of the people there couldn't have been nicer. And the dentist was amazing as well as his assistant. They made it so that the rest of my vacation I didn't have to worry about the space between my teeth showing. I just had a good time laughing smiling and I got to enjoy my time in Galveston. Thank you to everyone for making my vacation a good one.
Mint Dentistry has taken dentistry to a much needed improved experience. Going to the dentist is no longer the dreaded experience I have experienced with old school dental offices. Mint just took care of my chipped tooth with a crown. I have had crowns over rhe years and this is the first time it was done with little to no discomfort. Mint went the extra mile to make my visit the most comfortable experience possible with everything from the massaging dental chair to the Mint sunglasses to wear during the proceedure.
Dr. Lopez and Cynthia were awesome. My first visit for my crowns went great My favorite D.A. so far is Cynthia๐

Book NowWhat to Expect
During your consultation, one of MINT’s dental professionals will take impressions of your teeth so your crown can be custom made. If needed, a temporary crown can be placed over your tooth while your custom crown is in production. Once your crown is ready, our support staff will schedule an appointment for placement. After settling into one of our luxurious treatment chairs, you will be offered a pair of Beats headphones and MINT sunglasses to help you feel at ease during your procedure. Next, the area to be treated will be numbed with a local anesthetic. Other sedation options may be available to help you feel more comfortable during the procedure if you have any fears or anxieties. Once you are ready, a skilled dentist will prepare the tooth by removing any areas of decay, then filing down the tooth to make room for the crown so it will fit snugly. The crown will be cemented onto the tooth or attached to the dental implant. After the crown is set, we will adjust the fit of the crown, so your bite is correct.
Treatment Aftercare
If only local anesthesia is used, you should be able to leave once your crown is placed, to continue your daily activities. A member of our team will go over the best way to care for your new crown, including foods to avoid and the best way to keep it clean. During your exams at MINT dentistry, a skilled dental professional will assess your crown and adjust the fit as needed so it remains comfortable. We will let you know when the crown needs to be replaced, but with proper care, a crown should last for many years. If you experience any problems with your crown (for example, it becomes loose or falls out), contact our office for help. Do not try to fix it or put it back in yourself since this can lead to a bad fit or infection. We highly recommend all patients come back for a bite adjustment after getting a crown to ensure the bite is perfect. Bite complications are almost unavoidable because the patient’s mouth is numb but are easily fixed. Just call MINT.
