We take on complex cases to bring exceptional results and choose the most up-to-date treatment options for even the simplest procedures, paying careful attention to every detail.
During your first consultation with the dentist, they will examine the affected tooth or teeth and take X-rays to assess the condition of the root and surrounding bone. If extensive decay or risk of infection or injury to the tooth’s pulp is detected, a root canal will be performed to avoid underlying complications. To ensure comfort, the tooth and its gum tissue will be numbed with local anesthesia. The outer layer of the tooth will be reshaped along the chewing surface and sides to accommodate the crown.
If the damage or decay is extensive and the tooth cannot accommodate the crown, a filling material will be used to build up enough tooth structure to support the crown.
With digital scanning, a 3D image of the newly shaped tooth will be made. A copy of the surrounding teeth will also be made to ensure the crown will not affect your bite. A temporary crown made from acrylic will cover the tooth until the permanent crown is ready. You will need to wait for 2-3 weeks until your next appointment to fix the crown.
Once the permanent crown is ready, the acrylic crown will be removed, and the permanent one will be tried on. Our permanent crowns are designed to comfortably fit and blend in with the natural color of your teeth. However, it is essential to make sure that you are pleased with the appearance and fit of the crown. If you are satisfied, the permanent crown will be cemented in place with local anesthetics used for the procedure.
If you’re thinking about getting dental crowns, there are a few things you should keep in mind to make the process as smooth as possible. The first step is to schedule a consultation with a friendly and qualified dentist who can assess the condition of your teeth and help you decide whether dental crowns are the best option for your dental needs. Have a chat with your dentist about the different materials available for crowns, such as porcelain, ceramic, or metal alloys, and choose the one that best suits your personal style and functional requirements. Make sure to ask your dentist any questions you may have about the procedure, including potential risks and benefits, so you can make an informed decision. It’s also a good idea to talk to your dentist about the cost of the procedure and whether your dental insurance covers it. Finally, to ensure your dental crowns stay in great condition, don’t forget to maintain proper oral hygiene and follow any post-procedure instructions provided by your dentist.
