At Premier Dental of New Albany, we are committed to helping patients achieve and maintain strong, healthy, and beautiful smiles. One of the most effective ways we restore damaged or weakened teeth is through dental crowns. These custom-made restorations offer a reliable solution for improving both function and aesthetics.
Dental crowns are tooth-shaped caps designed to cover the visible portion of a damaged or decayed tooth. They are used to restore the shape, size, strength, and appearance of the tooth, effectively protecting it from further deterioration. Crowns are crafted from durable materials and tailored to blend naturally with your surrounding teeth, providing a seamless and long-lasting solution.
Our dental professionals recommend dental crowns for a variety of reasons, including:
• Restoring a broken, cracked, or severely worn tooth
• Supporting a tooth with a large filling
• Covering a dental implant or anchoring a dental bridge
• Protecting a tooth after root canal therapy
• Enhancing the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth
Each patient's needs are unique, and we work closely with you to determine the most appropriate treatment plan for your smile.
At Premier Dental of New Albany, we offer crowns made from several high-quality materials:
• Porcelain and ceramic crowns are popular for their natural appearance and are commonly used for front teeth.
• Metal crowns, including gold and alloys, provide exceptional strength and are often used for molars.
• Porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns offer a balance of strength and aesthetics.
• Your dentist will recommend the best material based on the location of the tooth and your specific needs.
Getting a dental crown typically requires two visits. During the first appointment, the tooth is carefully prepared by removing any decay and shaping it to fit the crown. We then take impressions of your teeth to create a custom restoration and place a temporary crown to protect the tooth.
Once your permanent crown is fabricated, you’ll return for a second appointment to have it placed and secured with dental cement. Our team ensures the crown fits comfortably and matches the appearance of your natural teeth.
Dental crowns can last many years with proper care and routine checkups, offering both durability and beauty. If you have a damaged or weakened tooth, a dental crown may be the ideal solution to restore your oral health and confidence.
