Thinking about getting a dental crown this year? Whether you’re dealing with a large cavity, a cracked tooth, or post-root canal care, crowns remain one of the most reliable and protective dental solutions available.
But in 2025, not all crowns are created equal—and there are some important updates patients should be aware of before treatment.
At Prestige Dental Care, we believe informed patients make better long-term dental choices. Here’s what you need to know if you’re considering a crown in 2025.
Why You Might Need a Crown This Year
Dental crowns are often recommended when:
- You’ve had a root canal
- You have a tooth that’s cracked or broken
- There’s not enough healthy tooth left for a filling
- You want to improve the appearance of a tooth with severe discoloration
If you’re unsure whether a crown is right for you, we break it down clearly in this blog:

What’s New with Crowns in 2025?
Dental materials and techniques continue to evolve. In 2025, patients can benefit from:
- Stronger all-ceramic materials: Modern zirconia and lithium disilicate crowns are more fracture-resistant than ever.
- Improved digital imaging: At Prestige, we use digital scans to capture a perfect fit, eliminating messy impressions.
- More natural aesthetics: Today’s crowns are crafted to mimic the translucency of natural enamel.
- Expanded financing options: Dental insurance benefits and in-house plans now make it easier to afford custom restorations.

What to Expect During the Procedure
Here’s a quick overview of what happens during your crown treatment at our Lake Worth or Loxahatchee office:
- Consultation & Exam: We’ll assess the damage, take digital scans, and determine the best material.
- Tooth Prep: The tooth is shaped to allow for proper crown fit.
- Temporary Crown: A temporary restoration is placed while your permanent crown is being custom-made.
- Final Crown Placement: Once ready, your new crown is bonded into place and adjusted for comfort and bite.
The entire process usually takes two visits—and many patients are surprised by how easy it is.
How Long Will My Crown Last?
Most crowns placed today can last 10 to 15 years, and many go beyond 20 with proper care. You can maximize the lifespan of your crown by:
- Brushing and flossing daily
- Coming in for regular dental cleanings
- Wearing a night guard if you grind your teeth
- Avoiding hard candies and chewing ice
