Dental Crowns
Dental crowns, also known as dental caps, are versatile restorative solutions that can enhance both the appearance and function of a tooth. At Dr. Tooth Advanced Dental Care, we specialize in providing high-quality dental crowns to help our patients achieve strong, healthy smiles.
A dental crown is a custom-made, tooth-shaped cap that is placed over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its strength, shape, and appearance. Crowns are often recommended for teeth that have suffered significant decay, fractures, or trauma, as well as for teeth that have undergone root canal therapy or have large fillings that compromise their structural integrity.
Our experienced team utilizes state-of-the-art technology and materials to create dental crowns that are durable, natural-looking, and long-lasting. We offer a variety of crown materials, including porcelain, porcelain-fused-to-metal, and zirconia, allowing us to customize each restoration to meet the unique needs and preferences of our patients.
The process of receiving a dental crown typically requires two appointments. During the first visit, our skilled dentists will prepare the tooth by removing any decay or damage and shaping it to accommodate the crown. An impression of the prepared tooth will then be taken, and a temporary crown will be placed to protect the tooth while the permanent crown is being fabricated.
Once the permanent crown is ready, usually within a couple of weeks, you will return to our office for the second appointment. Our dentists will carefully place and cement the crown onto the prepared tooth, ensuring a secure fit and natural-looking result. With proper care and maintenance, a dental crown can last for many years, providing you with a restored smile that looks and feels great.
If you have a damaged or weakened tooth that could benefit from a dental crown, don’t wait to seek treatment. Our compassionate team at Dr. Tooth Advanced Dental Care is here to help restore your oral health and provide you with the personalized care and attention you deserve.
