Crowns Q&A

Dental crowns are tooth-shaped “caps” that completely cover your natural tooth. Crowns help restore shape, size, color, and strength for weakened or decayed teeth. Your Creating Smiles Dental provider cements the crowns into place so they become a permanent part of your mouth.

Your dentist at Creating Smiles Dental may recommend a crown to:

  • Replace a large filling
  • Protect a weak tooth from decay or fracture
  • Restore a broken tooth
  • Cover an implant
  • Cover a tooth that had a root canal
  • Anchor a dental bridge

Crowns are also helpful to cover a discolored or misshapen tooth.

Crowns are permanent, so they are made out of durable, long-lasting materials, including:

  • Resin
  • Stainless steel
  • Porcelain fused to metal
  • Ceramic
  • Porcelain
  • Zirconia

Each material has its own benefits and purposes. Porcelain and ceramic, for instance, can be most closely matched to the color of your natural teeth and work well when you need them in the front of your mouth where they are most visible. Metal crowns are durable and good for back teeth to withstand biting and chewing over the long term.

The team at Creating Smiles Dental takes an individualized approach to your dental care, so they recommend the type of crowns that will function and look best for your particular situation. 

Getting a crown typically requires a couple of visits to Creating Smiles Dental. During the first visit, one of the dentists prepares your tooth so the crown can fit over it. This involves filing down the tooth, or building it up if there isn’t enough left of a decayed or broken tooth to support the crown.

Once your dentist reshapes your tooth, they make a physical or digital impression of the tooth and the surrounding area that the lab will then use to construct your custom crown. It often takes a couple of weeks to manufacture your new crown, so the dentist puts a temporary crown in place to protect the filed tooth until you return for the permanent crown.

At your second appointment, your dentist removes the temporary crown and carefully cements the permanent crown into place, making sure the fit and appearance are as perfect as possible.

Creating Smiles Dental can give you the information you need about whether crowns are right for you. Call or request a consultation with them online today.

Yes! Here at Creating Smiles Dental, we can create and place a crown in a single dental visit using our Glidewell Fastmil.iO machine! This eliminates the need for a temporary crown and allows you leave your dental appointment with a permanent crown that looks and feels natural. Click here to learn more about our Same Day Crowns!
