Crowns FAQ's
A dental crown is a custom-made restoration that covers the entire visible portion of a tooth above the gumline, resembling the shape and size of a natural tooth. Crowns are used to strengthen and protect weakened or damaged teeth, restore their function, and enhance their appearance.
A dental crown may be recommended to restore a tooth that has been significantly damaged by decay, trauma, or wear, or to strengthen a tooth following root canal therapy. Crowns can also be used to support dental bridges, cover dental implants, or improve the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth.
Dental crowns can be made from various materials, including porcelain, ceramic, metal alloys (such as gold or silver), and porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) hybrids. Each type of crown has its advantages and disadvantages in terms of durability, aesthetics, and cost, and the choice of material depends on factors such as the location of the tooth, functional requirements, and aesthetic preferences.
The process of getting a dental crown typically requires two dental appointments. During the first appointment, the tooth is prepared, impressions are taken, and a temporary crown is placed. The impressions are sent to a dental laboratory, where the permanent crown is custom-made. At the second appointment, the temporary crown is removed, and the permanent crown is bonded into place.
Dental crowns are designed to be long-lasting and durable, but they may eventually need to be replaced due to normal wear and tear, changes in the surrounding teeth, or recurrent decay. With proper care and maintenance, dental crowns can last for many years before needing to be replaced.
