Dental Crown Rockland County NY

Dental Crowns An Overview

Dental crowns are one of the most versatile solutions in modern dentistry. They are used to address a wide range of cosmetic, general, and restorative dentistry concerns. A crown acts as a “cap” to cover extensive areas to damage, decay, or an exposed portion of the tooth. Placing a custom-designed crown can offer natural looking, long lasting results.

In many cases, we used porcelain crowns to restore your smile because it offers the most natural looking and secure solution. Porcelain crowns are designed to match the size, shape, and color of the teeth, giving you a beautiful, bright smile. Our goal is to help you address your dental concerns through personalized solutions and excellent patient care.

Crowns can address these key concerns:

  • Cracked teeth
  • Chipped teeth
  • Discolored teeth
  • Misshapen teeth
  • For cosmetic improvement of an unsightly tooth
  • Stabilize a tooth after a root canal
  • Restore a dental implant

Modern dentistry has brought many diverse solutions for patients who are missing one or more teeth. A dental implant is designed to replace the missing tooth root by fusing with the jaw bone. A custom made dental crown is then placed over the implant to restore full function and beauty to your smile.

Dental Crowns What to Expect

During your visit, we will perform a thorough evaluation of your teeth to determine if a dental crown is right for you.

The entire dental crown process will require 2-3 visits to our office. During your first visit, we will prepare the affected tooth and take impressions. A custom dental crown is color matched and shaped to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth. During the fabrication phase, we will create a temporary crown which will stay on your teeth until your custom crown is fabricated.

At your next appointment, your temporary crown is removed and your tooth is carefully cleaned. We then place your custom crown on the affected tooth. To ensure a beautiful result, we gently polish your new crown and make any necessary adjustments.

A custom and well place dental crown can last many years with proper care. It is important to care for your dental crown just as you would your natural teeth. We will provide any necessary aftercare instructors to help you care for your new smile.

Dental Crowns FAQs

Is getting a dental crown painful?

No. Your affected tooth will be numbed so that there is no pain during the crown preparation. The process is like getting a dental filling. Your tooth may be sensitive to hot and cold foods for a couple of hours, but temporary sensitivity will go away.

Do I really need a dental crown after a root canal?

Yes, almost all root canals should be reinforced with a dental crown. Without structural reinforcement, your tooth becomes very susceptible to further decay, fractures, and tooth damage. our tooth may also develop permanent sensitivity to hot and cold foods.

What if my dental crown falls out?

If your crown falls out, do not attempt to put it back in, or reattach it with glue. Trying to reattach it yourself may cause more issues and severe pain. Keep it in a safe place and call us immediately. Refrain from using your tooth until you have visited us for a replacement.
