Questions About Teeth Crowns
Colorado Springs, Colorado
What Is A Teeth Crown?
A dental crown is a cap that is shaped to fit over a tooth, restoring the original size and shape. The tooth crown covers the tooth to the gum-line and is often used for teeth that are cracked or chipped and cannot be adequately restored by other techniques like dental bonding. A dental crown may also be placed to reshape a misshapen tooth.
How Are Teeth Crowns Placed?
In order to have a tooth crown placed you will only need to schedule a single appointment with Dr. Hall. Through the use of CEREC technology, Dr. Hall is able to create a beautiful ceramic dental crown in as little as 60 minutes. This eliminates the need for multiple visits or a temporary crown.
Is a Teeth Crown Right for Me?
Without having examined your mouth and oral health, there are no set answers as to whether or not a tooth crown is the most suitable procedure for you. Dr. Hall will take the time to examine the teeth surrounding the tooth requiring a tooth crown as well as other factors. Keep in mind that tooth crowns are not always the best solution so a complimentary consult regarding teeth crowns in Colorado is a must.
Do Teeth Crowns Last Forever?
When taken care of properly dental crowns can last for up to 20 years. The important part is taking proper care of them and scheduling routine visits with Dr. Hall to ensure that the crown is still secured and in its original position. The first five years of having a crown usually requires little to no major treatment or fixes to the crown. To keep your crown in the most ideal health, be sure to brush and floss as required.
