Dental crowns play a crucial role in preserving and enhancing the health of your teeth. Whether you have suffered from severe decay, undergone a root canal or simply want to improve the appearance of a tooth, dental crowns are the go-to solution.
Dental crowns become necessary in various situations. They provide support for weakened or cracked teeth, cover discolored or misshapen teeth and act as protective caps after a root canal. Additionally, crowns are essential for restoring the functionality and aesthetics of teeth with large cavities that cannot be addressed with traditional fillings.
The process of getting a dental crown typically involves two visits. During the first visit, our dentist will prepare the tooth, take impressions and provide a temporary crown. The impressions guide the creation of a custom-fitted permanent crown, which is then placed during the second visit.
Beyond aesthetic improvements, dental crowns offer functional benefits. They provide strength and durability to weakened teeth, restore proper chewing function and prevent further damage. They can last for many years with appropriate care, contributing to your overall oral health and wellbeing.
