Crowns
Dental crowns, also known as caps, are a popular dental treatment option for those who need to restore a damaged or decayed tooth. A dental crown is a tooth-shaped "cap" that is placed over a tooth to improve its strength, shape, size, and overall appearance. It is a permanent dental restoration that can last for many years, as long as proper oral hygiene is maintained.
At Smile Crafters ™, we offer high-quality dental crown services that can restore your damaged or decayed tooth and give you a confident, beautiful smile. Our team of experienced dentists and dental technicians use the latest technology and techniques to create dental crowns that are both durable and natural-looking.
A dental crown may be recommended by your dentist if you have a tooth that is:
Decayed beyond the point where a filling can restore it
Broken or fractured
Worn down due to grinding or other factors
Discolored or misshapen
In need of extra support following a root canal procedure
The dental crown procedure typically involves two visits to our dental office. During the first visit, our dentist will prepare the tooth by removing any decay or damage and shaping it to fit the dental crown. An impression of the tooth will then be taken, which will be used to create a custom-made dental crown that fits your tooth precisely. A temporary crown may be placed over the tooth to protect it until the permanent crown is ready.
Once the custom-made dental crown is ready, you will return to our dental office for the second visit. Our dentist will remove the temporary crown and fit the permanent dental crown onto your tooth. The crown will be checked for proper fit and bite, and any necessary adjustments will be made. Once the crown is properly fitted, it will be permanently cemented into place.
There are several types of dental crowns available, including:
Ceramic crowns: Made from porcelain or ceramic materials, these dental crowns are a popular choice because they can be color-matched to your natural teeth for a seamless, natural-looking result.
Porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns: These dental crowns are made with a metal base for strength and durability, with a layer of porcelain or ceramic fused to the metal for a natural appearance.
Gold crowns: Made from gold or other metals, these dental crowns are known for their strength and durability. They are typically used on back teeth that are less visible.
Zirconia crowns: Made from a strong, durable ceramic material, these dental crowns are often used for back teeth that require extra strength and durability.
At our dental company, we offer a range of dental crown options to meet the needs of each patient. Our experienced dentists will work with you to determine the best type of dental crown for your specific dental needs and goals.
It is important to note that dental crowns require proper oral hygiene to maintain their longevity. You should brush and floss your teeth regularly and visit our dental office for regular check-ups and cleanings to ensure the longevity of your dental crown.
