Restore and Protect Your Smile At Manhattan Dental Spa, we offer high-quality dental crowns to restore the function and appearance of teeth affected by extensive decay or damage. Learn how crowns can help protect your natural teeth.
Why Choose a Dental Crown? A dental crown is a durable, custom-made restoration that fully covers a damaged tooth, providing both aesthetic and functional benefits. Opting for a crown allows you to preserve the natural tooth structure, which helps maintain the stability of surrounding teeth and supports the underlying bone.
The Crown Placement Process
- Initial Impression: We begin by taking an impression to create a model of your teeth and bite, ensuring the crown fits naturally and functions properly.
- Tooth Preparation: The decayed or damaged portion of the tooth is carefully removed, and the tooth is shaped to accommodate the crown.
- Second Impression: Another impression is taken of the prepared tooth to ensure a precise fit for the final restoration.
- Temporary Crown (if needed): In some cases, a temporary crown may be placed while your permanent crown is being crafted.
- Final Placement: Once your custom crown is ready, we verify the fit and appearance before securely bonding it to the tooth.
Types of Dental Crowns
- Ceramic: Ideal for front teeth due to their natural appearance and ability to blend seamlessly with your smile.
- Porcelain Fused to Metal: Known for strength and durability, these crowns provide both a natural look and robust support.
- Gold Alloys: Strong and resistant to wear, gold crowns are often recommended for patients who grind their teeth.
- Base Metal Alloys: Corrosion-resistant and highly durable, these crowns are suitable for cases where minimal tooth structure remains.
Long-Lasting Results With proper care and good oral hygiene, dental crowns can last for many years, often providing a lifetime of protection and functionality.
