Get Your Damaged Tooth Restored with a Dental Crown
If you have a tooth that is cracked, decayed, or otherwise damaged, getting a dental crown can help restore its structure and function. Learn what crowns are and whether they may be right for you.
What is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” placed over a damaged tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. The custom-fabricated crown fully encases the tooth's visible part down to the gum line once cemented in place. Typical situations where crowns are needed include:
- Severely decayed or fractured teeth
- Following a root canal procedure
- To hold a dental bridge in place
- To cover a dental implant
Crowns reinforce and protect damaged teeth that cannot be adequately restored with fillings alone.
Types of Crowns:
Crowns can be made of:
- Metal alloys like gold or base metal alloys
- Porcelain fused to metal
- All-ceramic materials like porcelain or zirconia
What is the treatment process like?
Getting a crown involves:
Tooth Impression
- Exam to assess the damaged tooth and the need for a crown
- Filing the tooth down to accommodate the crown
- Taking impressions to make the custom crown. This would take up to ten days.
Cementing
- Cementing the fabricated crown onto the prepared tooth
- Checkups to ensure a good fit. This takes upto two days to complete
If getting Dental Crowns abroad, the treatment usually takes 2 round trips or one extended round trip of 12 days for both phases.
Who is a candidate?
Ideal candidates for Dental crowns are those who have a damaged tooth:
- Is in danger of fracturing or falling apart
- Needs reinforcement after a root canal
- Will need a crown to support a bridge
- Will need a crown to hold an implant in place
