Dental Crowns

Our dentist, Dr. George Skoog, and our team offer dental crowns which could be the key to saving a tooth and helping you maintain a healthy smile. A crown can protect or support a tooth and can even play a role in replacing lost teeth. If you would like to schedule an appointment for a dental crown in Palatine, Illinois, contact Advocate Dental of Palatine at 847-359-8732.

A dental crown is a restoration that serves many purposes. A crown is usually recommended to restore teeth that have become significantly damaged or decayed. Each crown is custom made and designed to perfectly fit your smile. The crown is placed over the damaged tooth to restore the natural appearance, shape and size of the tooth. Dental crowns can be made of gold, porcelain or porcelain fused to metal. Porcelain crowns are a popular choice, as our dentists can match porcelain to the natural color of your smile. During your consultation, we can help you determine which type of crown will work best for you.

Our dentists may recommend a dental crown if you have teeth that have become damaged enough that they cannot be repaired by a dental filling. Crowns serve many purposes, including:

  • Completing a dental implant restoration by capping the implant
  • Keeping a dental bridge in place
  • Correcting misshapen teeth
  • Strengthening fractured or weak teeth
  • Securing a large filling that your tooth cannot support on its own
  • Improving the overall appearance of your smile and your confidence

Patient Reviews

Dr. Skoog is very dedicated to his work and the well-being of his patients. On two different circumstances he was able to squeeze me in when he had a fully booked day. He is very good with understanding a patient’s apprehension of dentists. 🙂

So appreciative to Dr. Skoog for taking care of my husband’s terrible toothache during the holiday season. We are not patients of Dr. Skoog as we live out of state. He stayed late on a Saturday to alleviate my husband’s pain. We can’t thank him enough! Highly recommend.

Great care! The office is usually on time or early. Dr Skoog is very good and offers a lot of services eliminating the need to go to multiple providers which saves time. All staff is professional and friendly as well they make you feel like your their close friend.
