What Are Dental Crowns?
A crown is an effective option to address individual teeth with extensive tooth decay or damage. Dr. Palmer offers dental crowns to Houston, TX individuals to help cover and support the visible part of a damaged tooth while restoring its normal size and shape. Crowns are designed to match the surrounding teeth and may be recommended to treat broken, decayed, or misshapen teeth, or other forms of structural damage. These restorations may also be integrated into an oral appliance to create a bridge or positioned over dental implants to restore teeth that are missing. Schedule your appointment at Palmer Dental Group of Houston to find out if a custom crown can improve the appearance and health of your smile.
How Do Dental Crowns Work?
At other dental clinics, the dental crown process is typically split into two separate appointments. Thanks to the latest advancements in dental technology, the dental crown process at our Houston, TX practice can be completed in 1 – 2 hours. During your visit, Dr. Palmer will numb your damaged tooth and can offer sedation dentistry to enhance your comfort level if you prefer. Once the damaged area of the tooth has been removed, several images will be taken so the CEREC® software can create a 3D model. The model will then be used to create your new porcelain crown. Once your new crown has been created, it will be placed over the treated tooth to sustain normal oral function and a natural aesthetic.

- Improved ability to speak and eat

Dental Crowns Reviews
If you are a local to the south loop area, you would be remiss not to visit Dr. Palmer and his staff for your dental needs. Located conveniently on Stella Link the clinic is a decent size for the space they have. The front staff is always cordial and if you have to wait more than 5 minutes to get to your appointment, I would be surprised. Very efficient office. Azra is my tech and she is AWESOME!!! She is very knowledgeable, very efficient, gentle, and does a fantastic job. Plus she lets you hold the suction thing when she needs 2 hands...FUN!!!! Dr. Palmer himself is an AWESOME dentist. My previous dentist tried about 5 crowns on me to fix a tooth. So it was the usual, grind, cap with a temp, send home, send off for the crown, wait 3 weeks, come back, get crown installed, break crown, then wash-rinse-repeat. Dr. Palmer takes a 3D image of your tooth and then fashions the crown ON SITE. Yup. No waiting. No coming back. He has this cool machine that 3D mills your crown THERE. I think I am 5 years in and still no problems with the crown. On top of that he is super nice and friendly. He really takes time to explain everything and is very personable. Living close to this establishment and not going here would be like going to the Louvre and not seeing the Mona Lisa. It just makes no sense. So. Awesome staff? Check. Good location? Check. Clean office? Check. Awesome work product? Check. I trust these folks with all my dental needs.Rock solid 5 stars.
Since moving back to Houston, I've been searching for a good dentist. I tried one on Washington that said I needed 8 fillings - after never needing one before. I tried one on Greenbriar with the snobbiest dental hygienist. Finally, I found Dr. Palmer's office and the search has ended. I've had nothing but positive experiences visiting Dr. Palmer's office. Dr. Palmer is always running on time, the staff is friendly and they do same day crowns.
Great Dentist! Relatively painless experience. Sculpts porcelain crowns in-house to look like natural teeth!
The staff here is wonderful and they always talk to me about my procedures and answer any questions I have. They also work with me on scheduling and can usually accommodate my needs. The office is near the Medical Center but easy to get to (traffic is usually not a problem). And...they can do same day crowns in-office (if possible based on your situation)!! Thanks, Gregory Palmer DMD!
