How long do dental crowns last?

Porcelain and zirconia crowns typically last 15–25 years with proper care. PFM crowns last 10–15 years. Avoid biting hard objects, maintain good oral hygiene, and see your dentist regularly to maximize crown lifespan.

How many trips do I need for a crown?

Most crowns require 2 visits: the first for tooth preparation and temporary crown placement (1–2 hours), and the second 3–5 days later for permanent crown placement. Many patients plan a week-long trip to complete multiple crowns.

What is the difference between porcelain and zirconia crowns?

Both look natural and are metal-free. Porcelain (e.max) offers the most natural translucency and is ideal for front teeth. Zirconia is stronger and more resistant to chipping, making it ideal for back teeth with heavy bite forces. Our dentist will recommend the best material for each tooth.

Can I get multiple crowns in one visit?

Yes. Many patients have 4–8 or more crowns prepared in a single appointment. Our in-house lab fabricates all crowns simultaneously, so you can have them all placed in a second appointment 3–5 days later.

Restore Your Teeth with Premium Crowns and Bridges

Dental crowns and bridges are among the most commonly performed restorative dental procedures, and they represent some of the greatest savings opportunities for patients who travel to Los Algodones. A porcelain crown that costs $1,200–$1,800 in the United States is available at Molar City MX for $250–$450 — using the same Ivoclar and VITA porcelain systems.

A dental crown is a cap that covers the entire visible portion of a tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are used to protect cracked or broken teeth, restore teeth with large fillings, cover dental implants, and improve the appearance of severely discolored or misshapen teeth.

A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth (pontic) to the natural teeth on either side of the gap. Bridges are a fixed, non-removable alternative to partial dentures.
