3
  • WHAT IS A DENTAL CROWN?

4
  • It is important to visit your family dentist at
    least twice a year for a routine checkup or when
    you have a dental emergency.

5
  • If you are brushing and flossing your teeth
    frequently, then you likely wont develop any
    decay in your teeth or inflammation in your gum
    tissue.

6
  • With proper dental care, you probably will never
    require a dental crown, but in some cases, a
    dentist will recommend this restoration to save
    the underlying tooth.

7
  • Dental crowns are customized restorations that
    are designed to fit precisely over and around a
    natural tooth.

8
  • A dental crown is required when a natural tooth
    has a large cavity or severe injury that reduces
    its strength.

9
  • YOU MUST VISIT A DENTIST MORE THAN ONCE

10
  • If you require a dental crown due to an injury or
    decay, then you must visit a dentist more than
    once.

11
  • In some cases, a dentist will create a temporary
    restoration to protect your natural tooth while
    the custom-fitted crown is made in a dental
    laboratory.

12
  • At the dentists office, you will undergo a
    physical examination of your oral cavity along
    with having medical images collected.

13
  • When a natural tooth has decay, a dentist will
    remove the bacteria to prevent additional
    inflammation.
  • If you have injured a tooth while playing sports
    or during a vehicular collision, then your
    dentist will shape the tooth to cover it with a
    temporary restoration.

14
  • DENTAL LABORATORY TECHNICIANS DESIGN DENTAL
    CROWNS

15
  • This first appointment requires an hour or less
    because a dentist uses computer-imaging software
    to measure your natural tooth along with
    collecting a mold to order the permanent dental
    crown.

16
  • The mold of your natural tooth and the X-rays are
    sent to a dental laboratory where technicians
    will make a natural-looking dental crown.

17
  • These restorations are made of durable composite
    materials or porcelain.

18
  • A dental crown is designed to fit securely over a
    natural tooth from the top to the bottom to
    protect the underlying enamel, pulp and nerves.

19
  • DENTAL CROWNS AFTER A ROOT CANAL

20
  • In some cases, a dentist will need to remove the
    pulp, nerves and roots of the natural tooth
    because there is a serious infection, and this
    root canal procedure requires additional time to
    complete.

21
  • To reach the interior portions of the infected
    tooth, a dentist will remove the top of the tooth.
  • After all of the interior tissue is removed from
    the tooth, the dentist must fill it with a
    waterproof substance that supports the
    surrounding enamel.

22
  • DENTAL CROWNS CAN LAST FOR MANY YEARS WITH THE
    PROPER CARE

23
  • When a dental crown is designed, the dentist has
    3 goals for the restoration that include
  • Creating a color-matching restoration that looks
    attractive

24
  • Making sure that the underlying natural tooth is
    protected
  • Having a sturdy biting surface that permits
    consuming food

25
  • As a dental crown is placed over your natural
    tooth, it is cemented to remain in place for many
    years.

The average dental crown will last for 10 years
with proper care.
26
  • To keep a dental crown looking beautiful, you
    must continue to brush and floss your teeth along
    with visiting your family dentist twice a year.

27
  • Noble Dental Care is a family oriented dental
    care clinic with dentists that care about you and
    your health.

    your dreams.
