Crowns Also Offer Incredible Aesthetic Benefits
Dental crowns aren’t just for repairs. They can dramatically improve the appearance of your smile, too. These restorations are a powerful tool in cosmetic dentistry, offering both beauty and durability.
If you have a tooth that’s worn down, uneven, or severely discolored, a crown may provide a more complete and longer-lasting result than treatments like bonding or whitening. Unlike surface-level fixes, crowns fully cover the tooth, creating a more natural shape and color.
Contact our dentist to see if a new porcelain crown could be the right fit for your cosmetic goals.
Feeling Nervous About Treatment? Sedation Can Keep You Comfortable
Most patients only need local anesthesia for a dental crown because the procedure involves minimal discomfort. But if you have dental anxiety, sensitive teeth or gums, or need a crown after a more involved treatment like a root canal, local numbing alone may not be enough.
That’s why we offer sedation options for any patient who wants extra support. Sedation can help you stay calm and comfortable throughout your visit, making the experience feel faster and more manageable.
To explore sedation for your dental crown or another procedure, contact our team serving Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, and the East Mountains.

Dr. Ollason is the best dentist I have ever went to. I used to be so afraid and nervous to go to the dentist, and his approach and expert care changed all that for me. The dental assistance are amazing too! This is the best dental office in the city.

Today was my second visit to NMSC. It's been a really positive experience. They take you straight back for your appointment, so there is no extended wait. The hygienists are very nice and thorough. You can tell they care a lot for their patients. The dentists are very thorough and non-hurried in doing their assessments. This is one of the best dental practices where I have received care and I highly recommend it.
