Dental crowns are artificial restorations that completely cover a damaged tooth, restoring its functionality and aesthetics. Crowns are an excellent solution if the tooth is severely damaged and cannot be fully restored with a composite filling. They also protect the tooth from further damage. Depending on the patient’s wishes and needs, crowns can be made of various materials, such as metal, ceramic, porcelain or composite.
Our clinic employs highly qualified and experienced specialists who, using the most modern methods and materials, provide the highest quality services and treatment results. Our specialists use the most modern technologies to ensure accurate production and placement of crowns. In cooperation with a dental technical laboratory, we manufacture dental crowns individually for each patient. This ensures comfort and aesthetics, convenience and functionality in the long term.
Before placing dental crowns, it is important to discuss your needs and wishes with your dentist regarding the replacement of damaged teeth, as well as inform them about possible allergies, health problems and medications you are taking. The procedure usually requires several visits, so patients should plan time for the appropriate number of visits, which is individual and determined by the dentist during the consultation. No additional preparation is required for the procedure.
Placing dental crowns consists of several stages, which will require approximately 3-4 visits to the prosthodontist:
Dental crowns are artificial restorations that completely cover and protect a damaged tooth, restoring its functionality and natural appearance. They are used in cases where the tooth is significantly damaged and it is not possible to provide a stable and long-lasting solution with a filling. Crowns are made according to the shape and bite of each patient’s teeth. They help protect the remaining tooth tissue from further damage.
Dental crowns are needed when a tooth is severely damaged due to deep caries, erosion, wear or trauma, and a filling alone is not enough to restore the stability of the tooth. Crowns are also used to restore teeth after root canal treatment, as the tooth can become fragile after this procedure. They may also be needed for aesthetic reasons, such as to cover a tooth with severe discoloration (change or loss of natural color) or defects, ensuring a beautiful smile.
The installation of crowns involves several stages, starting with diagnostics and preparation. During the first visit, the dentist grinds down the damaged tooth and takes an impression of it, which is used to make a crown in the laboratory. To protect the tooth until the permanent crown is placed, a temporary crown is secured to it. During subsequent visits, the permanent crown is tried on to ensure its fit and the patient’s comfort. The final stage of treatment is the cementation of the permanent crown.
Dental crowns can be made from a variety of materials, depending on the patient’s needs, preferences, and budget. The most popular materials are metal alloys, porcelain, ceramic composites, and composite materials, such as metal-ceramics. Ceramic and porcelain crowns are popular for their natural appearance and aesthetics, while metal crowns are very durable and suitable for back teeth. The choice of material is made based on the location and function of the tooth, as well as the patient’s preferences.
With careful oral hygiene and regular visits to the dentist for preventive care, crowns can last up to 10 years or more. The lifespan of crowns is affected by factors such as the material used, dental care habits, and general oral health.
Depending on the terms of your insurance policy, the cost of dental crowns may be covered in part or in full. Present your policy to our administrators during your visit, and they will provide you with all the necessary information.
