Restorative dentistry repairs or replaces missing or damaged teeth and includes the following procedures:
A dental crown is a dental restoration that replaces the entire
crown portion of a tooth. Dental crowns may be restorative,
cosmetic, or both. At NYC Dental Lounge, our aim is to ensure your
teeth are not only strong but also radiate beauty and a natural
appearance. To achieve this, we offer porcelain crowns, which provide the following benefits:
You may need a porcelain dental crown if:
A dental bridge is one option to replace missing teeth, often replacing one or more missing teeth in a row, and are anchored in a variety of ways. A bridge offers restored bite function where missing teeth may have hindered chewing or talking before. And, bridges restore smiles and confidence too!
There are a few primary types of bridges we may offer you, based on your specific needs:
Veneers are thin, porcelain, custom shells placed on the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. Veneers conceal imperfections such as stains, cracks, or irregular shapes. They are bonded to the existing teeth, creating a natural-looking and durable solution. The procedure preserves most of the tooth structure while simultaneously improving the appearance and function of your smile.
Inlays and onlays are restoration options between a filling and a crown. They repair teeth that have moderate decay or damage that can’t be effectively treated with a regular filling but do not require a full dental crown. These intermediate treatments allow us to offer clients the least-invasive option possible, because we always want to restore your own natural teeth whenever possible.
Our clients have a variety of options for full- and partial-arch teeth replacement. Dentures or partial dentures have the power to restore function to your bite, beauty to your smile, and even better articulation to your speech. The NYC Dental Lounge offers the following options to clients at our Midtown office.
Dental Lounge is happy to offer a variety of restorations on existing implants, including all-on-x restorations. Also sometimes described as permanent or implant-supported dentures, all-on-x restorations function more like natural teeth than traditional dentures. This advancement in dental technology has given so many patients a higher quality of life because they’re stable, don’t require soaking, and help to prevent bone loss better than traditional dentures.
Advancements in dentistry have made traditional dentures a lot less common. This tried-and-true restoration, however, may still be the best choice for some clients for one or more of the following reasons:
Traditional dentures are also much more lifelike and attractive than they were a generation or two ago.
Partial dentures are removable like traditional dentures and fit into the dental arch similarly to a retainer. This versatile restoration is designed to replace any combination of teeth on a single arch.

A dental crown is a restorative masterpiece designed to rebuild and rejuvenate your smile, offering both aesthetic appeal and functional strength. At Dental Lounge in Midtown Manhattan, we specialize in providing bespoke dental crown solutions tailored to meet the unique requirements of each patient. Our state-of-the-art technology combined with expert craftsmanship ensures that your dental crown not only blends seamlessly with your natural teeth but also restores your tooth’s integrity and appearance.
Your path to a perfect smile begins with a comprehensive evaluation by our skilled dental professionals. This initial consultation allows us to assess your oral health, discuss your expectations, and determine if a dental crown is the best solution for you. Using advanced imaging techniques, we capture detailed pictures of your teeth, ensuring a custom fit and precise design for your crown.
Preparation is key to the success of your dental crown. This step involves reshaping your affected tooth to make room for the crown. Our goal is to preserve as much of your natural tooth as possible while creating an ideal shape for the crown to sit on. After the tooth is prepared, we take an impression, which serves as the blueprint for crafting your custom crown. A temporary crown may be placed to protect your tooth while your permanent crown is being made.
At Dental Lounge, we pride ourselves on using only the highest quality materials for our dental crowns, including porcelain, ceramic, and zirconia. These materials are selected for their durability and natural appearance. Your crown will be crafted in a state-of-the-art lab, where meticulous attention to detail ensures that it matches the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth.
Once your custom crown is ready, you’ll return to our office for the fitting. This visit involves removing the temporary crown, thoroughly cleaning the tooth, and then carefully placing the new crown. We ensure a perfect fit by making any necessary adjustments and then securely bonding the crown to your tooth. Our commitment to precision guarantees that your dental crown not only looks natural but also feels comfortable and functions flawlessly.
With your new dental crown in place, we provide you with detailed care instructions to help extend its lifespan. Regular dental check-ups, proper oral hygiene, and avoiding harmful habits are essential to maintaining your crown and overall oral health.
At NYC Dental Lounge, we’re here to ensure your dental health is never left to chance. Whether you’re experiencing a sudden emergency, interested in enhancing your smile, or just due for a routine check-up, our friendly team is ready to assist you with the highest level of care and compassion.

A dental crown is a custom-made restoration that fits over the existing structure of your tooth, effectively restoring its size, shape, and strength. You might need a dental crown if you have a significantly damaged or decayed tooth, after a root canal treatment, or to cover a dental implant.
With proper care and maintenance, dental crowns can last between 5 to 15 years, or even longer. The lifespan depends on the material used, the crown’s placement in your mouth, and your oral hygiene practices.
Yes, teeth whitening performed by our professional dental team is safe and effective. The results can last from several months to a few years, depending on factors like diet, oral hygiene, and tobacco use. Regular touch-ups can help maintain your bright smile.
Emergency dental care coverage varies by insurance provider and plan. We recommend contacting your insurance company to understand your coverage details. Our office staff is also available to help you with insurance claims and paperwork.
Regular dental exams and cleanings are crucial for maintaining oral health. They help prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and identify problems early when they’re easier to treat. Cleanings remove plaque and tartar build-up, leaving your mouth feeling fresh and clean.
