What Are Dental Crowns?

Essentially, a dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that’s designed to fit over the top of a tooth. Not only do dental crowns hold together and strengthen damaged teeth, but they can completely transform its appearance as well.

At Michel Dental, we can craft custom crowns out of precious metals, porcelain fused to metal, or complete ceraimc. Our recommendation for which material is right for you will depend on several factors, but in most cases, an all-ceramic crown is best because of its natural aesthetic quality. We’ll match your new restoration to the shade of your natural teeth for seamless results. These strong and durable restorations are used to address a variety of issues, including:

• Teeth with severe decay or large fillings
• Chipped, cracked, or broken teeth
• Stained, misshapen, or cosmetically flawed teeth
• Teeth that have been repaired with a root canal
• Missing teeth, when paired with a dental implant

How Are Dental Crowns Placed?

In most cases, we can provide patients with a custom-made dental crown in just a few short appointments. First, we’ll make room for your new dental crown by removing a small amount of enamel. Then, we’ll take impressions of the area and send them off to a dental lab, where they’ll be used to create your permanent restoration.

This can take a week or two, so we’ll usually cover your prepared tooth with a temporary crown in the meantime. Before you know it, you’ll be returning to our office to have it removed and your beautiful, permanent custom-made dental crown bonded into place. We’ll check to make sure your bite feels comfortable and then you’ll be ready to start enjoying your fully restored smile!

What Are the Benefits of Dental Crowns?

Thanks to modern dental technology and techniques, there are plenty of ways we can help you repair your broken or weakened teeth. However, dental crowns offer benefits like:

• Versatility: From damage to decay to cosmetic imperfections, there are very few dental issues that can’t be corrected with a dental crown.
• Durable, long-lasting materials: All of the high-quality materials we use to create our dental crowns are reliably strong and should easily last a decade or more with the proper care.
• Prevention of future issues: Since dental crowns encapsulate the entire portion of the tooth that’s above the gumline, they effectively prevent future damage and decay.
