Overview

Crowns

When a tooth cannot be repaired by a filling or the repair by a filling would be too large to maintain its strength, then a dental crown is your best option. With a dental crown, the visible portion of your tooth is reduced in size and shaped to allow space for a crown to cover the tooth to give the tooth strength and an esthetic look. Dental crowns in Allen are made of a variety of substances. However, today most crowns are made of tooth-colored esthetic material.

Dental crowns have been used in dentistry for many years, but the techniques for fitting and the materials they are made of have continued to improve with new advances in dentistry. Consequently, you can expect your crown to be esthetic, long-lasting, and well-fitting.

Dental crowns provide a predictable, permanent solution to restore damaged teeth, offering strength and aesthetics. They can be custom-made to match your natural teeth, ensuring your smile looks great.

Fitting of Dental Crowns

The process for fitting a patient for a dental crown usually involves two appointments in our office. We will create a mold of your existing tooth and remove any decay in the first appointment. Then we will prepare the tooth to receive a crown. Since it usually takes several days to prepare your crown, we will fit you with a temporary crown during this first visit.

On your second appointment, we will gently remove the temporary crown and adhere the new permanent crown in its place. We will then make sure the fit and bite are correct. This may require some minor adjustments to the crown’s surface to make sure it fits perfectly with your upper teeth. This is a normal part of the procedure.

At Allen Dentistry, we often install porcelain dental crowns for our patients when a tooth has been broken or severely damaged by decay. Contact us today to schedule a visit to discuss whether a dental crown is the right solution for you.

  My wife and I have been patients of Dr. Nylander for over four years.  I had another good appointment yesterday with the Dental Hygienist staff, who are just as caring and professional as Dr. Nylander.  In fact, it is a pleasure dealing with all of the staff from the time I walk in the front door, until I leave the office.
