Dental Crowns are protective covers dentists place over a tooth. They’re best used on decayed, cracked, or broken teeth. Since they provide ample protection and strength to a damaged tooth. Crowns are also prescribed after root canal treatments.
There are two main reasons patients may need or want crowns. The first reason deals with the cosmetic. Patients with crooked or stained teeth will want crowns to hide the imperfections. The second reason is functional. Dental crowns provide strength and stability to weakened teeth. So if you have a cracked tooth, dental fillings, implants, or root canal, a crown adds stability.
The lifespan of a dental crown is about 5 to 15 years. This is dependent on your personal dental hygiene habits. In addition to the amount of wear and tear your crown undergoes. At Rock Creek Dental, we recommend patients avoid bad oral habits. Such as teeth grinding and clenching, ice chewing, and fingernail biting.
Getting a dental crown is a painless procedure. This is due to the fact that there will be numbing of the problem tooth. Once the anesthetic wears off, it’s common to feel some sensitivity and soreness. This sensitivity and soreness is temporary and will go away on its own.
Crowns provide numerous benefits. They include:
• masking cosmetic imperfections from staining and discoloration
• restores fractured, chipped, cracked, or decayed teeth
• strengthening teeth that have large dental fillings
