What can dental crowns do for my smile?
A dental crown or tooth cap is an artificial dental appliance worn over the tooth to enhance its shape, size, color, and strength. Dental crowns have numerous functional and cosmetic uses in dentistry. Our dental team will recommend a dental crown in the following cases.
- Treating a cavity that’s too large for a filling
- Reinforcing a root canal-treated tooth
- Aesthetically improving a poorly shaped or sized tooth
- Covering a dental implant
- Supporting a dental bridge
- Disguising a stubbornly discolored tooth
Our dentist has developed exceptional skills throughout her career. You can expect nothing but the best when it comes to dental crowns. Our superb materials ensure that results look natural. Attention to detail ensures your dental crown fits comfortably like a glove—nothing like a bulky or unnatural appearance or feeling.
What can I expect from the dental crown procedure?
Your dental crown treatment starts with a consultation to examine your tooth. Often, we use dental x-rays to determine the extent of damage and whether only a crown is required. If only a crown is needed, we’ll prepare your tooth by removing the decayed portion and reshaping the enamel to accommodate the crown’s shape.
The doctor will digitally scan your tooth and send the records to our partner lab to custom-make your restoration. Until we receive your new crown, we’ll temporarily restore your prepped tooth to shield it from infections, injury, and thermal stimulations.
When your crown arrives, we’ll check its fit and appearance to match your expectations. We often make a few last-minute changes before using dental cement to bond your crown to your tooth. That’s what there is to dental crown treatment. Now, you can smile and eat confidently without pain or insecurity.
How does a dental crown maintain your healthy smile?
One reason teeth cause pain when eating or chewing is how they work. Each tooth has its function. When one tooth is missing or damaged, the surrounding teeth work harder to compensate for the lost function. When teeth work extra hard, this can lead to premature tooth wear and tension in the jaw muscles. Dental crowns restore missing and damaged teeth to restore your bite balance.
