Commonly Asked Questions
What Are Crowns?
Dental crowns are made from a variety of materials that include resin, porcelain, and certain types of metals. We use crowns to replace teeth that are either missing or damaged and it gives you an amazing smile. Our crowns are designed to look exactly like your other teeth so they blend in seamlessly.
How Do I Get a Crown?
We first start my looking at the tooth or teeth that you feel may need to have a crown. We will determine if we can anchor on to existing teeth or need to bridge across neighboring teeth or use a dental implant to secure the crown. We will take a model of your mouth and design a custom crown. We will send that model to a lab where they will send us back a finished crown.
Will My Crown Look and Feel Like a Tooth?
Your crown will look exactly like your other teeth and you may even forget which tooth it was that you have a crown on. You can treat it like a normal tooth but we always caution, as we do with natural teeth, to be careful about what you are eating and how hard you bite down.
