Dental Bridges
We believe in transforming smiles and restoring confidence
Dental crowns, often referred to as “caps,” are custom-made restorations that cover the entire visible portion of a tooth. Designed to mimic the natural appearance of your teeth, crowns are typically made of durable materials such as porcelain, ceramic, or metal. They are used to restore the shape, size, strength, and appearance of a tooth, ensuring that you can smile, bite, and chew with confidence.
There are several situations where a dental crown might become necessary. If you have a tooth that’s weakened, perhaps due to extensive decay or a large filling, a crown can provide the necessary strength and protection to prevent it from breaking. If a tooth is already broken or excessively worn down, a crown can effectively restore its shape and functionality. Crowns are also used for cosmetic enhancements; if a tooth is severely discolored or misshapen, a crown can significantly improve its appearance. Furthermore, crowns are an essential component in dental implant procedures, covering the implant to provide a natural tooth-like appearance. Lastly, after a root canal treatment, a crown is often placed to safeguard the restored tooth, sealing it off from potential infections.
What to Expect When Visiting the Dentist for a Crown
When you visit Woodhouse Dental for a crown, you can expect a two-step process:
Preparation and Impression: First, the dentist will prepare your tooth by removing any decay and shaping the tooth to fit the crown. Then, an impression of your tooth will be taken to ensure the crown will fit perfectly and match your natural teeth. A temporary crown may be placed to protect your tooth while your permanent crown is being made.
Placement of the Crown: In your next visit, the dentist will remove the temporary crown and cement the permanent crown onto your tooth. Adjustments will be made as necessary to ensure a perfect fit and comfortable bite.
