Dental Crowns at Dentistry Lab

Restore and Protect Your Smile

At Dentistry Lab, we understand the importance of having a strong, healthy, and beautiful smile. Dental crowns are a versatile and effective solution for restoring damaged teeth, protecting weak teeth, and enhancing the overall appearance of your smile. Our experienced dental professionals are committed to providing high-quality dental crowns that look natural and function seamlessly with your existing teeth.

What are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns, also known as caps, are custom-made restorations that cover the entire visible portion of a tooth. Crowns are designed to restore the tooth's shape, size, strength, and appearance. They are used in a variety of dental treatments to address issues such as tooth decay, fractures, and discoloration. Crowns can be made from several materials, including porcelain, ceramic, metal, and composite resin, depending on your specific needs and preferences.

Benefits of Dental Crowns

Dental crowns offer numerous advantages, making them an ideal choice for restoring and protecting your teeth:

Restoration of Function: Crowns restore the normal function of damaged or weakened teeth, allowing you to bite and chew comfortably.

Aesthetic Improvement: Custom-made crowns are designed to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, enhancing the overall appearance of your smile.

Strength and Durability: Crowns provide added strength to weakened teeth, protecting them from further damage and wear.

Versatility: Crowns can be used for a variety of dental issues, including restoring damaged teeth, covering dental implants, and supporting dental bridges.

Longevity: With proper care, dental crowns can last many years, providing a long-term solution for maintaining your dental health.

When Are Dental Crowns Needed?

Dental crowns are recommended for various dental issues and treatments. Here are some common situations where crowns are used:

Tooth Decay: When a tooth has extensive decay that cannot be treated with a filling, a crown can provide the necessary protection and restoration.

Fractured or Cracked Teeth: Crowns can cover and protect teeth that are fractured or cracked, preventing further damage and restoring function.

Worn Teeth: Teeth that are worn down from grinding (bruxism) or other factors can be restored with crowns to improve their appearance and strength.

After Root Canal Therapy: Teeth that have undergone root canal therapy are often covered with crowns to protect the tooth and restore its function.

Discolored or Misshapen Teeth: Crowns can improve the appearance of teeth that are severely discolored or misshapen, providing a more uniform and attractive smile.

Dental Implants: Crowns are used to cover dental implants, providing a natural-looking replacement for missing teeth.

Dental Bridges: Crowns are used to anchor dental bridges, which replace one or more missing teeth.

The Dental Crown Procedure

At Dentistry Lab, we follow a meticulous process to ensure the success and longevity of your dental crowns. Here’s what you can expect:

1. Initial Consultation: During your first visit, our dentist will conduct a comprehensive examination of your teeth and discuss your dental needs and goals. We will determine if a dental crown is the right solution for you and explain the treatment process in detail.

2. Tooth Preparation: If a crown is needed, the affected tooth will be prepared by removing a portion of the tooth structure to accommodate the crown. This ensures a proper fit and alignment with your bite.

3. Impressions: Digital impressions of your prepared tooth will be taken to create a precise mold for your custom-made crown. This ensures that the crown fits perfectly and matches the color and shape of your natural teeth.

4. Temporary Crown: While your permanent crown is being fabricated, a temporary crown will be placed to protect the prepared tooth and maintain your smile’s appearance.

5. Crown Placement: Once your custom crown is ready, it will be checked for fit, color, and comfort. If everything is satisfactory, the crown will be permanently bonded to your tooth using a strong dental adhesive.

6. Final Adjustments: Our dentist will make any necessary adjustments to ensure the crown fits comfortably and aligns properly with your bite. Your new crown will be polished to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.

Caring for Your Dental Crown

Proper care and maintenance are essential for the longevity of your dental crown. Here are some tips to help you care for your crown:

Maintain Good Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss your teeth regularly to keep your crown and surrounding teeth clean and healthy. Pay special attention to the area where the crown meets the gumline.

Avoid Hard Foods: While dental crowns are durable, it’s best to avoid chewing on hard foods and objects, such as ice and pen caps, to prevent damage to your crown.

Regular Dental Check-Ups: Schedule regular dental visits for professional cleanings and examinations to monitor the condition of your crown and overall oral health.

Wear a Nightguard: If you grind or clench your teeth at night, wearing a nightguard can protect your crown and prevent damage to your teeth.
