Dental Crowns
DENTAL CROWNS
At Gregorin Dental, we offer dental crowns to restore damaged teeth, ensuring a natural appearance and proper function. Our crowns provide a durable solution that enhances your smile and protects your oral health.
WHAT ARE DENTAL CROWNS?
A dental crown is an artificial tooth-shaped cover or cap that completely encircles a damaged tooth or dental implant. Crowns are designed to provide a natural appearance, proper alignment, and shape. They are permanently cemented to cover the entire visible portion of the tooth above the gums.
USES OF DENTAL CROWNS:
- Secure Dental Bridges: Hold a dental bridge in place.
- Cosmetic Enhancement: Cover misshapen or discolored teeth.
- Implant Coverage: Provide a natural-looking replacement for a dental implant.
- Smile Restoration: Enhance the appearance of your smile with cosmetic modifications.
- Replace Failing Crowns: Update and replace existing crowns that are no longer functional.
DENTAL CROWN PRECEDURE
The dental crown procedure at Gregorin Dental involves two appointments:
- First Appointment:
- The tooth is examined and prepared for the crown.
- If necessary, the tooth is built up to support the crown.
- An impression is taken and sent to a lab to create your custom crown.
- A temporary crown is placed to protect the tooth.
- Second Appointment:
- The temporary crown is removed, and the permanent crown is evaluated for fit and function.
- Once satisfied, the crown is permanently cemented in place.
- With proper care, dental crowns can last a lifetime.
POST-CROWN CARE
Proper care of your dental crown includes brushing, flossing, and using mouth rinse daily. Regular checkups and cleanings at Gregorin Dental are essential to maintain the longevity of your crown and overall oral health.
