What To Expect During A Dental Crown Procedure 

  • Preparation of Abutment Teeth

    Your dentist will clean and numb your mouth, and then begin to trim away a thin layer of enamel from the two teeth next to your missing tooth. These are known as “abutment teeth” and they will hold your crowns. Your bridge will permanently attach to these crowns.

  • Impressions

    Once your abutment teeth have been prepared, your dentist will use dental putty and trays to take impressions of your teeth. These impressions will be used by a technician at a dental lab to build your dental bridge.

  • Temporary Bridge

    Depending on your needs, your dentist will place a temporary resin bridge to protect your prepared abutment teeth, or two temporary dental crowns. Either way, your prepared teeth will be covered and protected until your permanent bridge can be placed.

  • Bridge Check & Adjustment

    Once your permanent bridge is ready, usually within a few weeks, you’ll come into the office to have the bridge checked for proper fit. Minor adjustments may be made by your dentist, if necessary, to ensure that your bridge looks and feels natural. If the bridge requires larger adjustments, it will be sent back to the lab for further refinement.

  • Permanent Placement

    Once you and your dentist have determined that the fit of your bridge feels right, they will use powerful dental cement to attach it permanently to your abutment teeth, restoring your smile and your bite.

    • Types Of Crowns 

    CERAMIC

    All ceramic crowns are popular because they mimic the appearance and translucency of natural enamel.

    PORCELAIN-FUSED-TO-METAL (PFM)

    PFM combines the aesthetic of ceramic crowns with the strength and resistance of metal crowns.

    • Are Dental Crowns A Good Idea?

      A dental crown is a fantastic way to give your teeth a makeover and ensure they stay in top condition! If you've got a cracked, damaged, or weak tooth - it may be time for a new crown. They're designed with stability in mind so that the issue will be fixed and your smile as well.

    • Tooth Cap vs. Crown: What's the difference?

      Teeth have always been a cause of worry, but modern dental crowns are the go-to solution for those with chipped, discolored, or damaged teeth. They offer a tooth-colored cap almost indistinguishable from your natural smile - and it goes by several names! Grandma may refer to them as 'dental caps' while you might hear people use the term "dental crown"— whatever name they're given - one thing is sure: these little wonders can upgrade your pearly whites.
