Dental Crowns

What Are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns, also known as caps, are custom-designed restorations that cover the entire visible portion of a tooth above the gumline. These crowns are crafted to resemble natural teeth in both appearance and function, offering comprehensive restoration for damaged, decayed, or weakened teeth.

Common Uses of Dental Crowns:

1. Tooth Restoration: Crowns are used to restore teeth that have undergone significant decay, damage, or fractures.

2. Protection for Weak Teeth: Teeth weakened by large fillings or root canal treatment can be strengthened and protected with crowns.

3. Cosmetic Enhancement: Crowns can improve the appearance of misshapen, discolored, or poorly sized teeth for a more harmonious smile.

4. Support for Dental Bridges: Crowns are utilized as abutments to support and anchor dental bridges, replacing missing teeth.

5. Covering Dental Implants: Crowns are placed on dental implants to replace single missing teeth effectively.

The Dental Crown Placement Process

1. Consultation: Our dentist evaluates your oral health, discusses your concerns, and determines if a dental crown is the appropriate solution.

2. Tooth Preparation: The affected tooth is prepared by removing a portion of the outer structure to accommodate the crown.

3. Impressions: Precise impressions are taken to create a custom-fitted crown that matches your natural teeth.

4. Temporary Crown: While the permanent crown is being fabricated, a temporary crown may be placed to protect the prepared tooth.

5. Permanent Placement: Once the permanent crown is ready, it is bonded securely to the prepared tooth, restoring its functionality and appearance.
