Dental Crowns
Can Help Repair And Restore Your Teeth!
At It’s Dental Time in Burlington, we know that dental crowns can help protect and restore a significantly weakened or damaged tooth. And because the materials used are designed to look just like your natural teeth, they can help boost your smiling and speaking confidence in the process.
What steps are involved with placing a dental crown?
The process typically requires two visits. During the first, our dentist will take an impression of your tooth and create a cast of it. Next, your tooth will be checked for decay. Should any be found, it will be removed before our dentist shapes and covers your tooth with a temporary crown. Once your custom-made crown is complete, we’ll schedule an appointment to have you visit us and our dentist will check your crown to ensure it fits properly before bonding it in place.
What oral health benefits are associated with dental crowns?
Dental crowns can offer a multitude of benefits, including protection against further decay, improved appearance, and strengthening of weakened teeth. In addition, they can help readjust misaligned bite patterns, and can even help prevent a tooth from shifting out of place.
Is there an ideal candidate for this treatment?
Patients who have teeth that are cracked, broken, worn down, or significantly decayed may be viable candidates for dental crowns. Those with weakened or infected teeth may also benefit from the procedure. Ultimately, it’s best to speak with a dentist at It’s Dental Time to determine if these restorations are the right option for you.
