High-Quality Crowns for a Confident Smile
A dental crown is a personalized restoration designed to protect and cover a damaged or weakened tooth. It’s commonly recommended for teeth that are cracked, broken, have large fillings, or have undergone root canal treatment, which can weaken the tooth structure. Crowns restore the tooth’s strength, function, and appearance, preventing further damage. With proper care, including good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, dental crowns can last many years, providing long-term protection and helping you maintain a healthy, attractive smile.
How Do I Know if I Need a Dental Crown?
We will evaluate your teeth to determine if a crown is necessary. If recommended, it is advisable to undergo treatment promptly to prevent further damage. If you have an old crown that needs to be replaced, we can conveniently do so in our office at a time that works for you. Crowns can be placed on any tooth in need of restoration.
Before starting the crown procedure, we will use a local anesthetic to numb the area of your mouth where the crown will be placed to ensure your comfort. The tooth will then be filed down to make room for the restoration. Impressions will be taken to create the new crown, which will be fitted during a follow-up appointment. The crown is made to last for years, providing you with a healthy and natural-looking smile.
