Intro To Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are a great option for you if you want to repair teeth that have become damaged, decayed, or discolored. According to the American College of Prosthodontists, doctors provide their patients with more than 2.3 million implant-supported crowns in the United States each year. This indicates the widespread use of dental crowns and their efficacy. Dental crowns are artificial teeth or “caps” that dentists often use to cover damaged or decayed teeth. They don’t require special care over time, but they can protect the teeth that are weak or have been broken. Interestingly, manufacturers can create these crowns from a variety of materials, including porcelain, ceramic, and metal alloys, such as gold.

  • Take X-ray images to assess the roots of the tooth and surrounding bone.
  • Perform root canal treatment If your tooth has severe decay.
  • Prepare your tooth for receiving the crown by reshaping and filling it with certain materials.
  • Make an impression of the tooth and send it to the dental lab to create a crown of the right size.
  • Decide the color shade of the porcelain crown. It must closely match the color of other teeth.
  • Make a temporary crown made of acrylic to cover and protect the tooth while the permanent crown is being made.
