Welcome to Advanced Dental Lapeer's Dental Crowns Services!
Premium Dental Crowns Services at Advanced Dental Lapeer, MI
Dental crowns, also known as caps, are versatile restorations used to restore the shape, size, strength, and appearance of damaged or decayed teeth. At Advanced Dental Lapeer, we take pride in offering premium dental crown services to help you achieve a healthy and beautiful smile.
What Are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are custom-made prosthetic restorations that fit over a tooth to cover and protect it. They are typically recommended for teeth that are severely decayed, cracked, weakened, or misshapen. Crowns can also be used to restore teeth after root canal therapy or dental implant placement.
Types of Dental Crowns:
Porcelain Crowns: Porcelain crowns are highly aesthetic and closely mimic the appearance of natural teeth. They are an excellent choice for front teeth or highly visible areas of the mouth.
Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) Crowns: PFM crowns combine the strength of metal with the natural-looking appearance of porcelain. They are suitable for both front and back teeth.
All-Ceramic Crowns: All-ceramic crowns are made entirely of ceramic materials, offering excellent aesthetics and biocompatibility. They are a popular choice for patients with metal allergies.
Gold Crowns: Gold crowns are extremely durable and long-lasting, making them ideal for back teeth subjected to heavy biting forces. While not as aesthetically pleasing as porcelain or ceramic crowns, gold crowns offer unparalleled strength and longevity.
Our Dental Crown Process:
Consultation: During your initial visit, our dentist will examine your teeth and discuss your treatment options. If a dental crown is recommended, we will create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs and preferences.
Preparation: The tooth receiving the crown will be prepared by removing a small amount of enamel to accommodate the crown. Impressions of your teeth will then be taken to ensure the crown fits accurately.
Temporary Crown: While your permanent crown is being fabricated in the dental laboratory, a temporary crown will be placed to protect the tooth.
Placement: Once your permanent crown is ready, it will be carefully placed and bonded to your tooth using dental cement. Our dentist will ensure proper fit and alignment before finalizing the restoration.
Final Adjustments: After placement, our dentist will make any necessary adjustments to ensure your bite feels comfortable and natural.
Benefits of Dental Crowns:
- Restore damaged or decayed teeth to their natural shape and function.
- Strengthen and protect weakened teeth from further damage.
