What Are Porcelain Crowns?
A porcelain crown, also known as a cap, is a custom-made cover that fits over an existing tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Porcelain crowns are especially beneficial for teeth that are cracked, broken, or severely decayed, as they protect the remaining tooth structure from further damage. They are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth for a beautiful, functional restoration.
Benefits of Porcelain Crowns
- Durability: Porcelain crowns are strong and long-lasting, offering a protective solution for weakened teeth.
- Natural Appearance: Porcelain closely matches the color, translucency, and texture of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless look.
- Restores Function: Crowns restore the ability to chew and speak normally, ensuring your teeth function as they should.
- Protection: A porcelain crown covers and protects a compromised tooth, preventing further damage and decay.
- Custom-Made: Crowns are created based on detailed impressions of your tooth, ensuring a perfect fit and comfortable feel.
The Porcelain Crown Process
Consultation and Examination:
We evaluate the condition of your tooth and discuss your options for treatment. If necessary, we may take X-rays to assess the extent of the damage.
Tooth Preparation:
The damaged portion of the tooth is removed to create space for the crown. We shape the remaining tooth to ensure a secure fit.
Impression:
An impression of your prepared tooth is taken, which is sent to a trusted dental laboratory to create your custom porcelain crown.
Temporary Crown:
While your permanent crown is being fabricated, a temporary crown is placed to protect your tooth.
Fitting and Adjustment:
Once your custom crown is ready, we place it over your tooth and make any necessary adjustments to ensure a comfortable, natural fit.
