Aura Smiles

Dental Crowns

We restore smiles with strong, natural-looking dental crowns. Little Elm patients benefit from crowns when decay, cracks, or large fillings weaken teeth. A custom crown can regain their shape, strength, and appearance. Dr. Srujani Gadusu uses high-quality materials and precise techniques to create crowns that blend seamlessly into your smile. Our team focuses on long-lasting results that feel just like your natural teeth.

Cap It Like It’s Hot: What a Crown Does

A dental crown covers the visible part of a tooth and protects it from further damage. The dentist uses crowns when a tooth has too much decay or trauma for a filling to hold. Crowns also restore teeth after root canals, repair cracks, or replace missing teeth with implants.

We custom-design every crown to match your natural tooth color, shape, and bite.

Signs You Might Need a Crown (Even If It Doesn’t Hurt)

You may not always feel pain when a tooth needs a crown. That’s why we encourage regular checkups and exams. The dentist may recommend a crown if you notice:

  • A large filling that keeps breaking
  • A cracked tooth or fracture line
  • A tooth that feels weaker when chewing
  • Discoloration or shape changes from trauma
  • Damage from grinding or nighttime clenching

A Crown Above the Rest: Your Material Options

We offer several crown materials to suit your needs, lifestyle, and preferences. During your visit, our dentist will walk you through each one.

  • Emax Crowns: Matches natural teeth and works well for front teeth
  • Zirconia: Ultra-strong and tooth-colored, ideal for molars
  • Porcelain-fused-to-metal: Durable with a natural appearance
  • Gold alloy: Long-lasting and gentle on opposing teeth

The Royal Treatment: How the Process Works

Getting a crown usually takes two visits. During your first appointment, the dentist prepares your tooth by removing old fillings and reshaping the enamel. We take scans and place a temporary crown to protect the tooth.

A dental lab creates your permanent crown using our precise scans. At your second visit, we cement the finished crown and adjust the bite.

Keeping It Clean: Crown Care Tips

Crowns don’t decay, but the tooth underneath can still get cavities or gum disease. Daily care helps your crown last longer and keeps your whole smile healthy.

We recommend the following:

  • Brush twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste
  • Floss around the crown daily
  • Avoid chewing ice, pens, or hard candy
  • Use a night guard if you grind your teeth
  • Visit us every six months for exams and cleanings

How Long Do Crowns Last?

With proper care, most dental crowns last 5-10 years or longer. Some patients keep the same crown for decades. The dentist checks your crown during each visit to ensure it stays secure and fits your bite.

If we spot wear, looseness, or damage, we recommend a replacement before problems develop.

Dental Crowns in Little Elm: Why Locals Trust Our Team

Our team designs every crown with your comfort, function, and appearance. We match the color and shape of your crown to blend naturally with your smile. The dentist uses gentle techniques and modern materials to ensure strength and beauty.

We listen closely to your concerns and adjust your treatment plan to match your goals and budget.

Crowns After Root Canals? Absolutely

After a root canal, the remaining tooth becomes brittle and vulnerable to breaking. The dentist usually recommends a crown to protect it. We shape and seal the tooth, then add a crown to restore function and prevent future fractures.

A crown after a root canal keeps your smile strong for the long haul.

Crowns on Implants: The Finishing Touch

When you replace a missing tooth with an implant, you see and use the crown daily. Using a secure connector, the dentist attaches a custom crown to the implant post. We match the shape and shade to your surrounding teeth for a seamless result.

Implant crowns offer a natural tooth’s feel, function, and look.

My whole family goes here because the doctors and staff are amazing! Dr. G did my filling, I love how they’re so thorough!! My teeth feel so cleaned and new! LOL. I also want to mention how great their staff are, They also have a mini play area on the front which is so helpful for families with kids! THANK Y’ALL! So grateful to be care for here! 

The staff is so friendly, very easy to schedule, they do beautiful work!  Dr. G is my go-to dentist there. She’s the best!!!!!

Dr G is the best dentist I have found since moving to Dallas. I always feel at ease when I am getting work done and I fully trust her with teeth.

She is great at explaining everything to me and ensures I have the best treatment possible. You can tell she truly cares about her patients and the work that she does.

Excellent experience. Staff and Dr. G were very informative explaining my options and what to expect during the process of my treatment. Excellent Experience. My dentist Dr. G is informative, excellent practitioners and professional in resolving my issue. Hats off to you guys “Issue Resolved”.

My son has special needs and requires more time, patience and attention than a typical person. This practice and Dr. G were amazing with him and we cannot thank them enough. Instead of dreading his next cleaning, I’m looking forward to it.  Thank you guys so much!

Everyone is so friendly and kind.  Miriam and Dr. G are wonderful!  I go here for cleanings, checkups, and they did a beautiful job on my crowns.  If you have dental anxiety like me, go here and ask for Miriam and Dr G.  The rest of the staff is great too and make scheduling or rescheduling appointments easy.  Highly recommend!!!

I am very happy with the work that Dr G and Nicolette has been doing on my teeth. They conduct themselves in a highly professional manner, always smile with a worm greeting that gives me confidence in their work. They make me feel important. That my friends, is what great services is all about. I think the Family Dentistry is the best for your dental work.

I never thought I would be writing a review about a dentist, but this place is awesome! Dr G has helped me overcome my fear of dentists. She is kind, patient, and makes me laugh.  I am shocked at how relaxed I am in her chair and how effortlessly she works. I have never experienced this with another dentist.

“I have been visiting this dental since over a year, and I definitely highly recommend it, especially DR. G, she is a professional, and does her job well.”

“The staff is so sweet! Dr. G is so efficient and has great bedside manner. I’m glad I chose them as my new dentist office.”

Gadusu (DR. G)was absolutely genuine breaking everything down giving me the best recommendations for my oral care! She even did a follow up next day call after my tooth extraction. The Dental assistant that did my X-rays that was by her side was very helpful and nice as well. I highly recommend for anyone kids – to adults!

“This was my daughter’s first visit with Canyon Creek and she enjoyed it very much. She had a cleaning done and said it’s been her most enjoyable visit. Thank you Dr G!”

“Dr. G is knowledgeable and personable. They were willing to help me on cost.”
