What Are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns are synthetic tooth caps, typically made from materials such as porcelain, ceramic, metal, or a combination of these. They are designed to mimic the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth, making them virtually indistinguishable

The Dental Crown Procedure:

The dental crown procedure at Royal Crown Dental Clinic typically involves the following steps:

• Free Consultation: Our dentist will examine your teeth, discuss your concerns, and determine if a dental crown is the right solution for you.
• Tooth Preparation: To accommodate the crown, your natural tooth is reshaped by removing a portion of its outer layer. In some cases, a temporary crown is placed while the final one is being crafted.
• Impressions: Your dentist will take impressions of your tooth to create a custom crown that perfectly fits your smile.
• Crown Fabrication: At Royal Crown, your crown will be meticulously crafted by the Dentist himself. The crown can be made from various materials, chosen based on your needs and aesthetic preferences.
• Placement: Once your custom crown is ready, it is securely bonded to your prepared tooth using dental cement.
• Final Adjustments: Your dentist will make any necessary adjustments to ensure your bite is comfortable and your new crown looks and functions naturally.

Usage of Dental Crowns

Crowns are used to:

• Restore Damaged Teeth: Crowns are ideal for repairing teeth that have undergone significant decay, fractures, or have been weakened by large fillings.
• Cosmetic Enhancement: They are used for cosmetic purposes to cover discolored, misshapen, or poorly aligned teeth, providing a natural and beautiful appearance.
• Support Dental Bridges: Crowns serve as anchors for dental bridges, replacing missing teeth in a gap.
• Protect Dental Implants: They can be placed over dental implants to restore missing teeth.

Caring for Your Dental Crown:

Maintaining a dental crown is similar to caring for your natural teeth. It's essential to:

• Practice Good Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss regularly to prevent gum disease and maintain overall oral health.
• Avoid Chewing Hard Objects: Refrain from chewing on ice, hard candies, or other objects that can damage your crown.
• Regular Check-ups: Schedule routine dental check-ups to ensure your crown is in good condition and make any necessary repairs if required.
