Porcelain Crowns in Northeast Alabama
Strong, Natural-Looking Protection for Damaged Teeth
Patriot Dental – Blount in Snead, AL and Patriot Dental – Marshall in Marshall County offer high-quality porcelain dental crowns to restore teeth that are chipped, cracked, badly decayed, or weakened.

When Is a Crown Recommended?
- Repairing teeth with large cracks, chips, or fractures
- Protecting a tooth after a root canal
- Restoring a tooth with a large filling or extensive decay
- Rebuilding worn or weakened enamel
- Improving the shape, size, or color of a tooth
What to Expect: The Crown Procedure
After removing any decay and preparing the tooth, Dr. Kenneth Vandervoort, DMD will take a digital scan and send it to a trusted dental lab to create your custom crown. You’ll receive a temporary crown while your permanent restoration is being crafted.
At your follow-up visit, we’ll place and secure the final crown, ensuring a precise, comfortable fit that looks and functions like a natural tooth — whether you’re treated at our Snead or Marshall County location.
Porcelain vs. Gold Crowns
Porcelain crowns are designed to closely match the color and translucency of natural teeth, making them ideal for visible areas of your smile. Gold crowns are extremely durable and may be recommended for back teeth where strength and longevity are priorities.
During your consultation, we’ll help you choose the best option based on your needs, goals, and bite.
Alternatives to Crowns
If a tooth is too severely damaged to restore, extraction may be necessary. In these cases, dental bridges or dental implants can provide reliable, long-term solutions to replace missing teeth and restore both function and appearance.
