Restore Your Smile, Restore Your Quality of Life
If you’re looking for a crown to repair and restore a problem tooth, you’ve come to the right place.
A Crown Fit for Royalty
Porcelain crowns, also known as dental crowns or caps, are custom-made restorations designed to cover a damaged, weakened, or discolored tooth. They are like a protective shield that not only enhances the appearance of your tooth but also strengthens it. Porcelain crowns are known for their lifelike appearance, making them virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth.
The Versatility of Crowns
Porcelain crowns are incredibly versatile and can address a variety of dental issues, including:
- Restoring Damaged Teeth: Crowns can repair teeth that are chipped, cracked, or fractured.
- Enhancing Tooth Appearance: They can improve the shape, size, and color of discolored or misshapen teeth.
- Supporting Weakened Teeth: Crowns provide support to teeth that have large fillings or are weakened due to extensive decay.
- Covering Dental Implants: They are used to cover dental implant abutments, completing the restoration.
- Anchoring Dental Bridges: Crowns can hold dental bridges in place, filling gaps caused by missing teeth.
The Art of Crafting Porcelain Crowns
Creating porcelain crowns is an intricate process that combines art and science. Here's how these dental restorations are made:
Step 1: Examination and Treatment Planning
- Dental Evaluation: Your dentist will examine your teeth and determine whether a crown is the right solution for your specific case.
- Treatment Planning: A personalized treatment plan is crafted to meet your unique needs and goals.
Step 2: Tooth Preparation
- Tooth Shaping: The tooth receiving the crown is prepared by removing a small amount of enamel. This ensures a snug fit for the crown.
- Impression: An impression of the prepared tooth is taken to create a precise mold for the crown.
Step 3: Crown Fabrication
- Custom Design: Skilled technicians create a custom design for your crown to ensure it blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.
- Materials: High-quality porcelain is chosen for its durability, natural appearance, and biocompatibility.
- Craftsmanship: The crown is carefully crafted to match the color, shape, and size of your existing teeth.
- Temporary Crown: While your permanent crown is being made, a temporary crown is placed to protect your tooth.
Step 4: Crown Placement
- Fitting: Once your permanent crown is ready, your dentist will ensure it fits perfectly.
- Bonding: The crown is securely bonded to your tooth using dental cement.
- Final Adjustments: Any necessary adjustments are made to ensure your bite feels comfortable and natural.
