The process of placing a dental crown usually involves two appointments. During the first visit, your dentist will prepare the affected tooth by removing any decay and reshaping it to fit the crown. Impressions of the tooth will then be taken to create a custom-fitted crown, and a temporary crown will be placed to protect the tooth until the permanent one is ready. During the second visit, the temporary crown is removed and the new custom-made crown is carefully fitted, adjusted and cemented into place.
Dental crowns offer significant benefits by restoring both the functionality and appearance of damaged teeth, enabling improved chewing and speaking while preventing further deterioration. At Redtree Dental, our team ensures that each crown is meticulously crafted and fitted, providing a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution for a variety of dental concerns.
