What Are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns, also known as caps, are prosthetic devices used to cover damaged or weakened teeth, restoring their shape, size, strength, and appearance. Made from various materials like porcelain, ceramic, metal, or a combination, crowns encase the entire visible portion of the tooth above the gumline. They are custom-made to fit each patient’s mouth and are cemented in place by a dentist. Dental crowns not only improve the aesthetics of a smile but also protect and strengthen compromised teeth, allowing individuals to bite, chew, and speak comfortably. They are commonly used to address issues such as decay, fractures, large fillings, or cosmetic imperfections.
Types Of Dental Crowns
CEREC Crowns – These same day dental crowns revolutionize the dental experience by utilizing advanced CAD/CAM technology. With CEREC, digital impressions are taken of the tooth, eliminating the need for messy traditional impressions. Using computer-aided design and milling, the crown is precisely crafted in the dental office, often within a single appointment, offering unparalleled convenience and efficiency for patients.
Traditional crowns – on the other hand, typically require multiple appointments spread over several weeks. After impressions are taken, a temporary crown is placed while the permanent one is fabricated in a dental laboratory. This process involves waiting for the crown to be created off-site and then returning for its placement. While effective, traditional crowns can be time-consuming and may inconvenience patients with multiple dental visits.
