Please schedule an appointment today with our Ormond Beach, Florida, office to discover how dental crowns can transform your smile and rebuild your confidence.
What is the crown fitting procedure?
Your dentist may recommend a dental crown to:
- Repair or restore a damaged tooth to restore its form and function
- Protect your tooth from further damage
- Enhance the appearance of your tooth
Regardless of the reason for needing a dental crown, our refined procedure prioritizes your comfort and safety. Placing a dental crown in our office involves two easy appointments. The first appointment starts with a comprehensive exam of your tooth using dental X-rays. The objective is to determine the extent of decay and whether a crown is the best treatment.
If so, we’ll prepare your tooth by gently removing the decayed/damaged portion. Next, we’ll reshape your enamel to create a stable foundation for your crown. Then, we’ll take digital scans of your tooth that our partner dental lab will use to handcraft your restoration. While waiting for your new crown to be ready, we will provide a temporary restoration with an interim crown.
You’ll come to our office for placement when we receive your new crown. We’ll remove the provisional crown and clean your tooth before trying your permanent crown. If needed, we will make minor adjustments to your restoration to ensure a snug fit and natural appearance.
Are dental crowns worth it?
Dental crowns repair teeth that would otherwise be extracted without treatment. A dental crown rebuilds your afflicted tooth, restoring its health, function, and aesthetics.
We use porcelain crowns in our office to restore smiles. We prefer porcelain crowns because they offer the following benefits.
- Natural-looking outcomes.
- Durable results.
- Porcelain is resistant to staining, maintaining your white smile for years.
- They are maintained like natural teeth.
- Straightforward treatment.
- Porcelain is biocompatible, providing a safe and comfortable solution for smile restoration.
Our office artfully places your dental crowns to ensure they function and look like natural teeth. We do not want you to feel awkward or unnatural just because you have a crown. We use unrivaled skills, state-of-the-art materials, and techniques to deliver optimal crown outcomes.
How should I maintain my crown?
Our dental crowns are created from durable materials that are resilient enough to withstand everyday use. When carefully maintained, our porcelain crowns can last 15 years or more. Observe the following tips to keep your dental crown healthy.
- Brush and floss your teeth conscientiously.
- Visit a dentist twice annually for dental cleanings and check-ups.
- Don’t use your teeth as tools.
- Avoid chewy, sticky, and hard foods.
- Protect your crown with a personalized mouthguard if you play contact sports or grind your teeth.
