Dental Crowns
Restore Strength Without Sacrificing Beauty
Is Your Tooth Damaged or Decaying?
When a tooth has been weakened by a large filling, cracked from grinding, or damaged by decay, you might notice sensitivity when chewing or changes in how your bite feels. Maybe you’ve been avoiding certain foods or worrying about how a visible chip affects your smile when you’re at work or out with friends around Billings. These concerns are real, and they deserve attention from a trusted dentist who understands what Montana families need and the unique challenges they face.
At Shumway Family Dentistry, we help restore damaged teeth with dental crowns that look natural and function just like your original tooth. We know that deciding on a restorative procedure involves questions about cost, time, and results; especially when you’re balancing your family’s dental needs with other household expenses. If your tooth is showing signs of damage or you’ve been told you need a crown, call us at (406) 248-7500 to schedule an evaluation.
Compassionate Comfortable Crown Treatment
We understand that dental anxiety is real, especially when a procedure sounds more involved than a routine cleaning. Crown placement might seem intimidating at first, but our team makes the process as comfortable and straightforward as possible. We believe you should feel informed and at ease at every step, whether you’ve had dental work before or this is your first major restorative procedure. Your comfort is our priority.
During your visit, we’ll walk you through exactly what to expect, from the initial preparation to the final placement. You’ll never feel rushed, and we encourage questions because we want you to feel confident in your treatment plan. Many of our Billings-area patients are surprised by how smooth the experience is, often mentioning they wish they hadn’t waited so long to address their dental concerns. We use modern techniques and gentle care to ensure you leave feeling relieved rather than stressed.
Custom Porcelain Crowns
Quality matters when it comes to restoring your smile, which is why Shumway Family Dentistry uses custom porcelain crowns designed to match the shape, shade, and translucency of your natural teeth. Dr. Shumway completed his dental degree at the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry and is a member of the Academy of General Dentistry, staying current through continuing education in the latest restorative techniques and materials.
Each crown is crafted with precision to fit seamlessly with your bite and blend naturally with surrounding teeth. You won’t have to worry about an obvious restoration that makes you self-conscious at work meetings or family gatherings around Montana. Instead, you’ll have a durable, beautiful solution that protects your tooth and enhances your confidence in professional and social settings.
Preserve Your Natural Teeth
A crown does more than improve appearance; it saves your natural tooth and restores full chewing function so you can enjoy meals without discomfort or worry. By covering and protecting a damaged tooth, a crown prevents further breakdown and eliminates the need for more extensive and costly treatments down the road.
Whether you need a crown to protect a tooth after a tooth-colored filling or to anchor a dental bridge for a missing tooth, we’ll help you understand how this treatment fits into your overall care plan and family budget. You’ll leave our office knowing your tooth is strong, functional, and protected for years to come, allowing you to focus on what matters most; your family, your work, and enjoying everything Montana has to offer.
