What To Expect From Your Dental Crown Appointment
Consultation
Our experienced dentist will evaluate your oral health during your initial consultation, discuss your concerns, and determine if a dental crown is the right solution.
Tooth Preparation
The affected tooth will be prepared to ensure a proper fit by removing any decayed or damaged areas. Our dentist will carefully shape the tooth to create a solid foundation for the crown.
Impression
An impression of the prepared tooth will be taken to create a customized dental crown that matches your natural teeth' shape, size, and color.
Temporary Crown
While your permanent crown is fabricated in a dental lab, a temporary crown will be placed over the prepared tooth to protect it.
Crown Placement
Once your permanent crown is ready, our dentist will remove the temporary crown and bond the new crown onto the tooth using dental cement. They will ensure a proper fit, comfortable bite, and natural appearance.
Benefits Of Dental Crowns
