What is a dental crown?

A dental crown is an artificial cap that covers damaged, stained or crooked teeth. They can be made from materials like porcelain, ceramic, gold, or glass. Your dentist will remove an outer layer of the damaged tooth and take a mold to ensure the perfect fit and natural look, and place a temporary crown while the permanent one is made. The permanent crown is then glued in place with dental adhesive. Follow a regular oral hygiene routine to maintain dental health and the longevity of your crown.

FAQ's

Getting a crown is virtually a painless process from the first visit to the last. Your mouth will be numbed before any filling or fitting is done.

The discomfort is usually described as weak, dull, or cold sensitive and resolves on it’s own in about two weeks.

You only have to wait for 30 to 45 minutes after you leave your dentist’s office before eating. Just remember not to chew where your crown is even in the days following the procedure.

Besides sticky and chewy foods, you may eat to your comfort level after the aesthetic is worn off.

It’s not uncommon for your temporary tooth crown to hurt soon after your procedure. It may be sensitive to hot and cold templates, so be sure to avoid this when eating and drinking, especially for the first week.
You should brush regularly and floss carefully to keep your mouth clean
Bacteria go after what’s left of a tooth by converting sugars into acid, which eats through the enamel and results in rot and a cavity or infection underneath the crown.
Good flossing technique keeps plaque from causing issues. Floss should be threaded and moved through the space between the crown and the gumline. Regular brushing also helps clean around the crown.
Soft-bristled toothbrushes are the best choice for patients who have had veneers or crowns placed in their mouth.
