FAQ
What are dental crowns?
Dental crowns are custom-made caps that cover and protect a damaged or weakened tooth. They restore the tooth’s shape, size, strength and appearance. Crowns can be made from various materials, including porcelain, ceramic, metal or a combination of these. A dental crown will be bonded to the tooth, providing a long-lasting solution for preserving your tooth’s functionality and aesthetics.
What are the benefits of dental crowns?
Dental crowns offer several benefits, including restoring the tooth’s functionality and appearance. They provide structural support to weakened teeth, preventing further damage and decay. Crowns also improve the tooth’s alignment and bite, enhancing overall oral health. Additionally, crowns made from high-quality materials such as porcelain or ceramic can be color-matched to your natural teeth, providing a seamless and aesthetically pleasing result.
How long does it take to get a crown?
The process of getting a dental crown typically takes two visits to our dentist. During the first visit, our dentist will prepare the tooth, take impressions and place a temporary crown. This appointment usually takes about an hour. The impressions are sent to a dental lab, where your custom crown is created. The second visit, about two weeks later, involves removing the temporary crown and cementing the permanent one in place, which usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes.
When are dental crowns recommended?
Dental crowns are recommended when a tooth is severely damaged, decayed or weakened and cannot be restored with a filling or other less extensive treatment. They are commonly used to protect teeth after root canal therapy, restore broken or worn-down teeth, cover and support teeth with large fillings, and improve the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth. Crowns can also be used to cover dental implants and secure dental bridges.
