Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are used to save the tooth that has been damaged, infected or severely discolored. Dental crowns are placed over the broken teeth to prevent further damage.

Porcelain Crowns

Porcelain crowns have become the most popular choice for patients due to its durability and bond strength. They are the most popular prosthetic restorations used in cosmetic dentistry to improve the aesthetic appearance and function of your severely decayed primary teeth. Dental crowns provide the much-needed support and strength to the weakened teeth and hold the bridges in place. Crowns help your teeth look better and restore a natural appearance, concealing your discolored or damaged teeth. Custom-made crowns are prepared to suit the individual patient’s requirement. Different types of materials are used for making crowns. Porcelain-based material is a better option for restoring your front teeth as they provide good aesthetics and truly resemble your natural teeth.

Dental Crown Procedure

There are various steps involved in installing crowns. During your first visit, the dentist will apply a local anesthetic to desensitize the tooth structure, where it needs a crown. Next, the dentist will use a drill to cut through the decayed area around the tooth so that there should be enough room to fit the crown perfectly. Dental putty or a paste-type material is applied to take a good impression of your teeth. Crown preparation usually takes 2-3 weeks. The dentist will place a temporary crown until a final, custom-made crown is prepared by the laboratory.

Crowns are fixed with special dental cement which is used for permanent cementation to teeth and hardened or cured with a dental curing light. Maintaining good oral hygiene including right brushing and flossing techniques will help crowns to last longer. Crowns restore the tooth’s original shape and size of the teeth. They provide strength and durability to the damaged teeth, and also improve your bite power. Crowns restore your tooth structure and provide aesthetic benefits. Porcelain crown is the best option to give you a shiny, bright and dazzling smile.

Testimonials

All my fears of going to the dentist completely went out the door after my first cleaning here. The staff and Dr.'s are extremely patient, gentle, and informative. I was recommended here by a friend who knew I was nervous about going to the dentist after many years.

I am so happy I was referred here. I was skeptical about going to my appointment as I needed a deep root cleaning and filings. However, my experience was "as good as it gets" going to the dentist. The doctor was gentle, provided explanation and constantly checked to see if I was okay during the procedure. The assistant was just as good as the doctor, she had excellent chair side manner and made the procedure super comfortable. At one point, I caught myself falling asleep during my deep root cleaning...seriously, how does that happen?! This office has met and surpassed my expectations.
