Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are versatile dental restorations that are a popular solution for teeth that have extensive decay, fractures, large fillings, or those that have undergone root canal treatment. They are used to “cap” the health parts of the tooth and bend seamlessly with the rest of your smile.

Why Would I Need a Dental Crown?

Dental crowns are an excellent option for individuals with teeth that are structurally compromised and need reinforcement. If you have a tooth with significant decay, cracks, or weakened structure that cannot be effectively repaired with a dental filling, a crown may be the right solution.

The Treatment Process

During your first visit to 360 Dental of Mill Creek, the tooth is prepared by removing any decayed or damaged portions, and it is reshaped to accommodate the crown. Impressions of the prepared tooth are taken to create a custom crown that fits perfectly. A temporary crown is placed while the permanent crown is fabricated in a dental laboratory. During the second visit, the temporary crown is removed, and the permanent crown is bonded securely onto the tooth.

Benefits of Dental Crowns

Dental crowns offer several advantages, including:

• Providing essential protection and reinforcement for weakened teeth, preventing further damage or fractures.
• Restoring the natural appearance of the teeth, enhancing smile aesthetics.
• They are durable with proper care, lasting for many years.
• They improve functionality of the teeth, allowing for comfortable chewing and biting.
