Crowns & Caps

What Is A Crown?

A crown is how Dr White can fix a tooth that is either broken or has a large portion missing due to decay.
A crown covers the tooth completely, protecting it from breaking.
Crowns can be made from many different materials, and Dr White will discuss the most appropriate material for your specific case.
What should I expect when getting a crown?
First and foremost, you will not experience any pain. With modern anesthetics patients should not experience any discomfort.
A color is selected so the crown will match your existing teeth.
Once numb, Dr White will "prepare" the tooth by taking away about 1mm of tooth structure all around.
An impression is taken of the modified tooth and sent to the lab for fabrication.
A temporary is made out of tooth colored material and the patient is scheduled for 2 weeks later for the permanent cementation of the crown.
What happens after I get a crown or bridge
It is common to have some soreness in the area of the injection.
Some patients experience cold sensitivity for a few days to 1 week after. If sensitivity persists please let us know so we can get you back in for Dr White to assess the problem.

Call or send us a message to schedule an appointment.

Dr White is a compassionate dentist and a very good technician. He has in his office technology to create a crown on the spot. Rather than having to wait weeks and come in and out of office for touch up fittings and bite areas, this technology creates a perfect crown and it is delivered the same day. Dr White's team is beyond excellent they are friendly and professional. You truly feel like you are part of a family.

SHERRY SHORT

Dr. Ben had to extract all 26 of my teeth in January and replace them with dentures. As traumatic as this could have been, his experience, kindness, professionalism, and care made this experience as good as it could be. Dr. Ben and his staff kept in constant contact with me throughout my healing process.I never felt like he was rushing through my appointments. My many many questions and concerns were addressed immediately and with superb knowledge.I would recommend Dr. Ben to anyone who needs any dental care whether it be big or small.I am completely satisfied with my new smile and I am so healthy now.Thank you to Dr. Ben and his entire staff!

My entire family absolutely loves Dr. White and all of his staff. Dr. White is extremely attentive, knowledgeable, and will always tell you exactly what he's doing and why he needs to do it. He takes all of the uncertainty and fear out of a dentist appointment.My wife and I have been going to him for the past few years, and we knew we could trust him when my low-income father needed help. We brought my dad in to have an infected tooth pulled, offering to cover the bill for him, and Dr. White decided to take him on as a pro bono patient. He completely transformed my dad's life, pulling all of his rotten teeth and setting him up with a beautiful set of dentures. Dr. White gave him the care our family couldn't afford and treated him like he would his own family. His kindness and generosity set off a domino reaction, giving my dad the confidence he needed to get back on his feet. Thank you, Dr. White!!

Dr. White changed my life. Right before Christmas, my daughters sent me in to see him and offered to pay for me to have an infected tooth pulled. Dr. White took one look at my mouth and knew pulling a few teeth wasn't going to stop my pain. Touched by my daughter's generosity, he decided to take me on as a patient pro bono. He not only pulled all of my rotten teeth but also set me up with a pair of dentures on the house. I can finally eat without pain and smile again. His generosity and kindness made a huge impact and gave me a new lease on life. I have so much confidence now to meet new people, start dating again, and even got a new job that I love. A new smile really makes such a difference in life. Dr. White really cares deeply for his patients and for helping others when he can. I can't recommend him enough.

100% happy with my cleanings and filling at White Smiles. My sister is switching dentists and coming in next. Super friendly staff, very detail oriented, very careful to minimize discomfort.Before I joined, I called ~3 other dentists trying to get an appointment that works with my complicated schedule and on relatively short notice - White Smiles was the only place that the receptionist seemed to be friendly, patient and really tried to help set me up.

Dr white. Is one of the only dentists that I don’t mind going to see every time I have a check up it’s like seeing a friend that you haven’t seen in a few months .i highly recommend wouldn’t recommend to see anyone else!!!!!

I can't say enough about Doc Ben and the staff at the office. It is a professionally run dentist office that is impeccably clean, efficient, and they make you feel like you're an old friend. I know...crazy for getting dental work done! My wife and I just moved to the Pensacola area and were looking for a new dentist after having the same dentist in Chicago for over 19 years. We thought our dentist up north was technologically advanced until we went and saw Doc Ben. Not only did I get two crowns done, which were made and installed onsite all in one day. But I also had a clear guard retainer scanned, made, and fitted...also all onsite. If I could give them 10 stars I would have!!!

I have never met a dentist who cares as much about my teeth as Dr. White. He is meticulous and the whole team truly makes you feel special. I highly recommend them for your dental needs.

william West

I had a tooth pulled yesterday and never felt anything. This morning I’m at Waffle House eating breakfast like nothing ever happened. Thanks Dr. White. 😀

Jeremy Jenkins

Absolutely amazing experience. I literally fell asleep in the chair with tells you how comfortable I was.

Randy Lane

Dr.White is an amazing dentist, I had a chipped tooth that needed to be repaired. The White Smiles staff got me in 2 days after. He was very helpful and informative on what he was doing to repair my tooth, and gave preventive care advice as well. The procedure was absolutely painless, and he got it done in a very timely manner. Id give Dr. White 10 stars if I could.

Adam Guess

Prepare to have your mind blown! I had the audacity to chip my front tooth, but fear not, for Dr. White and his extraordinary team at White Smiles delivered a jaw-dropping performance that left me utterly speechless. Their unparalleled expertise and attention to detail transformed my dental emergency into a work of art. I was skeptical that the bonding agent would leave an unsightly blemish, but brace yourself for this revelation: Dr. White's magical touch was so seamless that even my astute sister couldn't discern which tooth had been graced by his artistry.Let me tell you, the experience was more enchanting than a fairy tale, and the hospitality extended by Dr. White and his staff surpassed the legendary warmth of a thousand suns. Their genuine care and impeccable manners eclipsed the friendliness you'd encounter at a celestial Chick-fil-A drive-through.Listen closely, my dear friends and family, for I am about to bestow upon you a priceless gem of wisdom: White Smiles is the pinnacle of dental excellence. I implore you, nay, I demand that you partake in this extraordinary symphony of dental perfection. Prepare to rise to your feet and shower this remarkable office with a resounding standing ovation. It's a spectacle you simply cannot miss!

I came to white smiles after not going to the dentist for 6 years and they made it so easy. They truly want you to be happy with your teeth and are so kind and comforting throughout the whole process. They explained each step they took and why so I never felt nervous or confused. Highly recommend!

I was really concerned about two previous cleanings with another dentist that were very very painful. So as you can imagine I was very concerned about the cleaning with Dr White's office... I'm happy to say that Shelly or is it Shelby... Anywho the young lady that cleaned my teeth and Dr White's office did an excellent job sure it was uncomfortable but that's how the dentist always is... But it was entirely tolerable and that's saying a lot from me... I think Dr White's office is the best dentist office I've ever been to in My Life and I'm going to continue to go there... I hope this helps some people decide when they need dental Care which office to go to that's Dr Ben White at White smiles dentistry.

Dr. Aaron Hixon DC

I've been a White Smiles patient for several years and have had a great experience. Routine cleanings are quick and Dr. White is very knowledgeable. Just a bonus, he and his staff have great music taste, which is nice to stay entertained during a cleaning! Thanks, Dr. White!

Brad Lowery

Dr. White and the staff at White Smiles are top notch! Not only do they provide excellent dental care with state of the art equipment and techniques, they do so in a professional, personable, comfortable, and relaxing environment. Dr. White and his team are an asset to the greater Pensacola area. My family and I have had nothing but great experiences at White Smiles. The music playlist in the office alone will make you want to go back to the dentist!

Seriously. If you are searching for a Dentist. Search no further. I have been a patient of his coming up on a yr now. And let's be honest no one, I mean no one enjoys the Dentist. But when you received a root canal on 6/18 and it is now 6/20 and your conversaton piece is "Hey I received a root canal a couple days ago" and they respond, "you're here? Here at work? No pain?" 🤣🤣🤣🤷🏾‍♀️ Why yes, yes I am. He's the bomb.com. We all know not every Google search is created equal lol but Dr. White has restored my faith in Google searches lol So happy to be his patient.

Paul Weinacker

Great experience! Even with having a root canal. Dr.White went out of his way to look out for my best interest.

I was so nervous about the procedure I was going to have done and not only was it quick and completely painless but Doc White and his staff went above and beyond to ensure comfort in what could have easily been a very uncomfortable experience had a less caring group been doing the work.I was truly impressed by this experience and compelled to share my experience with the hopes that others will gain in the same way that I have from finding White Smiles in Pensacola.

Logan Logan

Dr. White and his staff are absolutely amazing! You can’t go wrong with this place!

Natalia Hernandez

The best dentist I’ve ever been to. Facility was clean, staff was SO NICE, and just a great experience all around. They’re very thorough! Definitely recommend them!

Alysa Burchill

I would definitely recommend White Smiles Dentistry to anybody in the Pensacola area! Dr. White and his staff were so pleasant and professional. There were a few hiccups with locating my previous dental records (this was my first visit with White Smiles) but the staff was very quick to get everything taken care of right away! The day of my appointment was a crazy day for Dr. White as he had over 10 of the Pensacola Ice Flyers coming in to get fitted for their mouth guards, but he still did his due diligence and took his time with each patient. He answered all of my questions and was very pleasant. You can tell he is very passionate about what he practices. He is very good at what he does! Michelle (I believe that was her name), my hygienist, was a delight as well. She was very understanding and patient with me. She made the process as pleasant and tolerable as possible. I look forward to coming back in in 6 months!

I rarely write reviews but I just had to after my first visit. The entire staff was amazing and it was honestly the best dental appointment I have ever had. Thank you!

I had searched for quite awhile and tried many dentists in the Pensacola area before coming to Dr. White. My search is over. He is a perfectionist, takes his time, and patiently and thoroughly answers and welcomes all questions. You don’t feel rushed and like just another number. His assistant, Irene, is one of the best I’ve ever seen as well. The office is new and nicely done, very up to date. Highly recommend!

Amanda Hauer
