Strength and Beauty, All in One Crown
When a tooth is cracked, badly decayed, or weakened, it needs more than a simple filling. It needs a solution that provides full protection and restores its function. At Veda Family Dentistry, we use modern, tooth-colored dental crowns to do just that. A crown acts as a durable, custom-fitted cap that covers your entire tooth, restoring its original shape and strength while blending flawlessly with your natural smile.
What is a Tooth-Colored Crown?
A tooth-colored crown is a custom-fabricated restoration made from high-grade, durable materials like porcelain or zirconia. Unlike old metal crowns that create a dark line at the gums, these advanced ceramic materials are chosen for their strength and their remarkable ability to mimic the natural translucency and shade of tooth enamel. The result is a restoration that is virtually indistinguishable from your other teeth.
When is a Dental Crown the Right Solution?
Our doctors may recommend a dental crown for a variety of functional and cosmetic reasons, including:
To protect a weak tooth (often after a root canal) from breaking.
To restore a tooth that is already broken, cracked, or severely worn down.
To cover and support a tooth with a large filling where little natural tooth remains.
To secure a dental bridge firmly in place.
To conceal a misshapen or severely discolored tooth as part of a smile makeover.
To complete a dental implant, acting as the new replacement tooth.
The Dental Crown Process: What to Expect
Getting a crown is a straightforward, two-visit process designed for comfort and precision.
Consultation & Preparation: First, we’ll examine the tooth to ensure a crown is the best solution. We then numb the area and carefully shape the tooth to create the ideal foundation for the crown.
Precise Impressions: We take a highly accurate digital impression of your prepared tooth. This scan is sent to a top-tier dental laboratory where technicians will craft your custom crown.
Temporary Protection: We will place a comfortable, temporary crown on your tooth to protect it while your permanent restoration is being made.
Placing Your Final Crown: At your second visit, we will remove the temporary crown and place your final one. We meticulously check the fit, bite, and color before permanently bonding it into place for a seamless, lasting result.
