What is a Dental Crown? And When Do I Need One?

A dental crown is like a cap that goes over a damaged tooth to make it stronger and protect it. It is used in different situations to help teeth look better or work better, and it can even replace a missing tooth.

Severe Tooth Damage

If your tooth has a lot of decay, we might suggest a dental crown instead of a filling. This is because fillings only fill a hole in the tooth and block out bacteria. They do not make a damaged tooth stronger.

Cosmetic Dentistry

Dental crowns serve multiple purposes in both cosmetic and restorative dentistry. They can transform a misshapen tooth into one with a natural and attractive shape. Additionally, crowns are valued for their capability to cover up tooth discoloration that may not be improved by teeth whitening treatments.

Root Canal Therapy

Crowns are frequently put in place after a root canal. Since a lot of tissue is removed during this procedure, crowns are essential for supporting what is left of the tooth.

Missing Tooth

Porcelain crowns, designed to look beautiful, can fill in gaps from missing teeth. They can be used in a dental bridge or attached to a dental implant. Both options help restore smiles and boost our patients confidence.

What Happens During Treatment: What You Can Expect

Consultation

Our dentist will carefully check your teeth to find out what is wrong. We use advanced dental tools like panoramic x-rays and intraoral cameras to make sure we give you the best care possible.

Prepping the Tooth

The dentist will do any needed treatments, like getting rid of tooth decay. Then, they will shape the tooth so that when the crown is put on, it looks just like a real tooth.

Impressions

With our intraoral scanner, the dentist will make a 3-D picture of the area needing treatment. This means patients do not have to deal with messy impression material, which can be uncomfortable, especially for those with a sensitive gag reflex.

Design

The computer will receive the digital impression, and with advanced CAD/CAM technology, the dentist can precisely design your crown.

Milling

The design for the crown will be sent to our milling machine in the clinic, which will make a perfect copy using top-notch dental materials. We have various options like medical-grade porcelain, IPS e.max®, and zirconia. The milling usually takes under an hour.

Placement

Our dentist will check the crown in your mouth to make sure it fits well and you are satisfied with how it looks. If needed, they will make final tweaks before permanently fixing the crown onto your tooth.

Traditional Crowns

Some dental situations may not allow for same-day crowns. If you need to return for another appointment, you will receive a temporary crown to wear while your permanent one is being made. During your next visit, the temporary crown will be taken off, and the permanent crown will be put in its place by the dentist.

Are You Missing a Tooth?

Consider Implant-Supported Crowns

Instead of using dental bridges, lots of people prefer dental implants to replace missing teeth. Dental implants are special because they not only bring back your smile but also keep your jawbone strong.
