Dental crowns<\/a> are one of the most common ways of dealing with decayed, damaged, or just generally less-than-perfect teeth. However, while that\u2019s the case, there\u2019s a lot you may not know about the process of getting a dental crown\u2014after all, it\u2019s the sort of thing that people don\u2019t really talk about unless you specifically ask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re getting dental crowns soon, you may not necessarily know what the process is likely to entail. Here\u2019s what you can expect from that process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Process of a Dental Crown Consultation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The first step will involve talking to your dentist about whether getting a dental crown is the right move for you, how many you\u2019ll need, any preliminary treatments, and what kind of material you should use for the crown. Ultimately, these factors come down to the problem that you\u2019re dealing with and where the issue is located in your mouth, among other variables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Dentists Prepare Your Tooth For a Dental Crown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once you and your dentist have a game plan in mind, they\u2019ll take digital impressions of your tooth and model a dental crown to fit. Your dentist will send these designs to a lab to be constructed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the meantime, your dentist will remove a small portion of your enamel to make room for the eventual dental crown. In order to protect your tooth while the restoration is being milled, they\u2019ll cover your tooth with a temporary dental crown adhered with a temporary cement that keeps it in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How a Dental Crown is Placed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once your dental crown has been completed, your dentist will call you back in for the restoration to be placed. This should be possible around 2 weeks after your first appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After numbing your mouth, your dentist will carefully remove your temporary crown and put the permanent crown in its place. The use of anesthetic should make this process completely painless, and afterwards, your tooth should feel good as new!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
