What Is a Dental Crown?

Dental crowns offer a permanent and protective solution for a damaged or broken tooth or teeth. They can be made out of a variety of materials, such as gold or acrylic resin; however, the natural look of porcelain is the preferred material for most crowns.

What Is Dental Crown Procedure?

The process for creating and fitting dental crowns takes place over two to three visits across two or three weeks. Dr. Merat Ostovar first removes all decay; then the damaged tooth is sculpted and prepared for being fit with a crown; and finally, an impression of your tooth is made for creating the custom tooth crown. You will be fit with a temporary crown while you wait for the permanent one to be made. When your crown is completed, Dr. Ostovar places it onto the permanent tooth, ensures the fit and look are correct, and cements it into place.

Once fit with your permanent dental crown, you’ll see that it was worth the wait. When crafted carefully and with your individual needs in mind, a permanent crown can restore your confidence, comfort, and overall quality of life.
