Here are some of the benefits of crowns and other restorations:
While dental crowns are generally considered safe and effective, some risks and complications are associated with the procedure, including tooth sensitivity, allergic reactions to the materials used, and damage to the underlying tooth structure. It is important to discuss any concerns or questions with your dentist before undergoing the procedure.
The placement of a dental crown is typically not painful as the dentist will numb the area with a local anesthetic. Sedation may be offered as well. However, some patients may experience mild discomfort or sensitivity after the procedure, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap covering the entire visible portion of a damaged or weakened tooth, while a filling is a material used to fill a cavity or small area of tooth decay.
The cost of a dental crown can vary depending on several factors, including the type of material used and the complexity of the procedure. We will provide you with an estimate of all treatment costs and options during your visit.
The benefits of dental crowns include restoring the shape, size, and function of a damaged tooth, improving the appearance of a misshapen or discolored tooth, preventing further damage to a weakened tooth, and supporting a dental bridge or implant.
A dental crown can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years or longer, depending on the material used, the quality of the dental restoration, and the level of oral hygiene and care. Regular dental check-ups and cleanings are important to ensure crown longevity.
The placement of a dental crown typically requires two appointments. During the first appointment, the dentist will prepare the damaged tooth by removing a portion of the outer layer and taking impressions of the tooth to create a custom crown. The impressions are sent to a dental laboratory where the crown is fabricated. During the second appointment, the dentist will cement the crown onto the tooth using a dental adhesive.
You might need a dental crown if you have a tooth that is significantly damaged or weakened and cannot be repaired with a filling or other dental restoration. A dental crown can also improve the appearance of a misshapen or discolored tooth or support a dental bridge or implant.
