If you’re living with a broken, damaged, or decayed tooth that is past the point of restoration through the use of a filling, then we may recommend a crown. Crowns are used to help restore full function to broken and damaged teeth and, in some cases, can be used to improve the aesthetic appearance of a tooth.
Receiving a crown usually takes two visits, with a wait of 1-2 weeks between appointments while your crown is being made for you. On your first visit, we’ll take a series of photographs and digital impressions, which will be sent to expert lab technicians, who will then craft your crown. We’ll take everything into consideration, including shade, shape, and size of the tooth in question, so that your new crown fits in seamlessly with the rest of your mouth.
Our skilled team will then prepare the tooth to receive the crown – this usually involves the removal of any decayed or damaged parts of the tooth – and place a temporary crown so that you can continue to eat and speak as normal. When your crown is ready for you, you’ll return to the practice for your second appointment, and we’ll apply it here.
