Dental Crown<\/p>\n
Although permanent teeth are meant to last a lifetime, it’s easy to let them go. Not brushing is one way to surrender your teeth to tooth decay; skipping\u00a0regular dental visits is another. Truth is there are several things that can make the health of your teeth go awry — which is why a dental crown is such a common dental treatment. Given how many people have dental crowns of their own, it’s easy to see why you’d want to find out more about teeth crowns.
\nTooth\u00a0crowns are one of the most effective dental solutions for\u00a0restoring a tooth’s shape, size and strength, or to improve its appearance. Your dentist might recommend\u00a0teeth crowns to:
\n– Cover discolored teeth or\u00a0dental implants
\n– Protect a tooth from\u00a0tooth decay
\n– Restore a\u00a0broken tooth
\n– Hold a\u00a0dental bridge in place<\/p>\n
The Dental Crowns Procedure
\nPreparing teeth for teeth crowns usually involves two visits. Tooth crowns can be prepared and placed in a two visits. During the first visit, We will take an X-ray to examine the extent of decay.<\/p>\n
If a root canal isn’t necessary, we will:
\n– File the chewing surface, sides of the tooth and surrounding teeth.
\n– Take an impression of the prepared tooth and surrounding teeth.
\n– Place a temporary crown to cover the prepared tooth while the permanent dental crown is being made.
\nAt your second visit, we will remove the temporary and check the fit and color of the permanent crown, then cement it in place.
\nDental crowns are made from a variety of dental materials, including:
\n– Metal (gold, nickel or chromium)
\n– Porcelain fused to metal
\n– All porcelain or all ceramic
\n– Resin (durable plastic)<\/p>\n
Caring for Your Teeth Crowns
\nKeep in mind that a metal crown requires less tooth structure to be removed, but is less attractive than a porcelain crown. Alternatively, a porcelain crown, though less noticeable, may not last as long as metal or resin crowns.
\nA new dental crown may make your teeth sensitive to heat and cold. Some dental crown can chip easily and some tooth crowns become loose or fall off. If you experience any problems with your dental crown, call us Today.
\nDental crowns don’t keep tooth decay at bay. You still need to brush, floss and have regular dental cleanings. Avoid certain habits such as opening packages with your mouth, grinding your teeth and chewing ice to help prevent tooth crowns from wearing out prematurely. Well-cared for dental crowns can last 5 to 20years.
\nReading about dental crowns is a good start; following up with a conversation about tooth crowns with dentist is even better.
