Dental Crowns
Dental crowns protect, cover, and restore weak or damaged teeth when fillings are insufficient. The process involves two appointments to ensure a perfect fit and long-lasting results.
Dental crowns are an essential solution for reinforcing weak teeth that cannot be adequately treated with fillings alone. These include teeth with large fillings or those that have undergone root canal treatment. Crowns are designed to protect, cover, and restore the shape of your teeth, ultimately improving their function and appearance.
Available in various materials such as metals, porcelains, and ceramics, crowns offer durable and aesthetically pleasing results tailored to meet individual patient needs.
The Step-by-Step Crown Process
Initial Appointment
The process of placing a dental crown typically requires two appointments. During the first visit, the tooth and surrounding gums are numbed with a local anesthetic before the tooth is prepared and a mold is taken.
Second Appointment
This mold is then sent to a lab where a technician crafts your custom crown. About two weeks later, during the second appointment, the temporary crown is removed, and the final crown is securely cemented into place. It is important to maintain proper oral hygiene by brushing and flossing around your crowns just like you would with natural teeth.
