Knowing When a Dental Crown is the Right Answer
There are several instances where our dentist may feel that placing a dental crown on a tooth is the best move to take. Crowns are often used to protect teeth that have undergone significant damage or decay, especially when a filling won’t provide enough support. If you’ve had a root canal, for example, a crown is usually put on to reinforce the treated tooth and restore its function.
Additionally, crowns are commonly used for cosmetic purposes, such as covering discolored or misshapen teeth. For those with dental implants, a crown serves as the visible tooth replacement, completing the implant procedure and giving you a functional, natural-looking smile.
The Dental Crown Procedure Rundown
The process of receiving a crown typically requires two visits to our Jacksonville, FL, dental office. During the first visit, our dentist will prepare the affected tooth by removing any decay and reshaping it to fit the crown. Impressions of your teeth will be taken and sent to a trusted dental lab where your custom porcelain crown is created to match the shape and color of your surrounding teeth.
While your permanent crown is being crafted, you will receive a temporary one to protect your tooth. Once your permanent crown is ready, you’ll return for the second visit, where it will be carefully placed and adjusted for a perfect fit. With proper care, your crown can last for many years, providing durable protection and improving the overall health of your smile.
