WHAT ARE DENTAL CROWNS?
A Strong, Beautiful Solution for Damaged Teeth
A dental crown, sometimes called a tooth cap, covers the visible portion of a damaged or weakened tooth. Crowns can restore a tooth’s shape, strength, function, and appearance while helping protect the remaining natural tooth structure.
At Buschbach Dental, crowns may be recommended for teeth that are cracked, worn, severely decayed, weakened by a large filling, or have undergone root canal treatment. A crown can also be used as the visible restoration placed over a dental implant.
Our goal is to create a restoration that feels comfortable, functions naturally, and complements your smile.
THE DENTAL CROWN PROCESS
Getting a Dental Crown at Buschbach Dental
Every patient’s needs are different, but the dental crown process generally includes the following steps:
1. EXAM & EVALUATION
Your dentist will carefully examine the tooth and may take digital X-rays to evaluate its condition and determine whether a dental crown is the appropriate treatment.
2. TOOTH PREPARATION
The tooth is carefully prepared to create the proper foundation for your new crown. Impressions or digital scans are then taken to help create a restoration designed specifically for your smile.
3. CUSTOM CROWN CREATION
Your dental crown is crafted to achieve the appropriate shape, size, color, and fit. Special attention is given to creating a natural appearance that complements your surrounding teeth.
4. PLACEMENT & COMFORT
Once your crown is ready, your dentist will check the fit, appearance, and bite before securely placing it. Final adjustments can be made to ensure your restoration feels comfortable and natural.
