If you have a damaged tooth that's not lost, a crown can be the solution to restore its shape, appearance, and function. Crowns, sometimes referred to as caps, are hollow artificial teeth used to cover and protect damaged or decayed teeth. Whether you've had a root canal, a large filling, or a broken tooth, crowns can make your tooth look and function like new, providing a natural-looking and durable solution.
If you require a dental crown, rest assured that you're in capable hands at Tenth Line Family Dentistry in Orléans. Dr. Hasan Syed, our experienced dentist, is well-versed in crown procedures. However, in some cases, Dr. Hasan Syed may refer you to a prosthodontist. A prosthodontist is a specialist dentist who has completed advanced post-graduate training in prosthodontics, a field of dentistry focused on restoring and replacing natural teeth and tissues with artificial substitutes.
Here's a step-by-step overview of how a crown is placed:
These are the typical steps involved in crown placement. However, depending on your specific dental needs, your tooth may require additional treatments such as orthodontic work, gum treatment, or root canal therapy.
