Cracked and chipped teeth are more vulnerable to further damage, infection, cavities, and gum disease – and they can feel uncomfortable when you bite down. Fortunately, you don’t have to endure these problems for long! At our office in Centennial, we’ll gladly fit you for a quality dental crown. Once the cap is fixed over your tooth, it will be protected from these troublesome issues, feel more comfortable, and, if you choose a tooth-colored material, look perfectly seamless in your smile.

What Is a Dental Crown?

The word “crown” isn’t too far off from what it’s like to receive this treatment. It’s basically a hollowed-out cap that will be placed over your tooth for 360-degree coverage. While fillings are ideal for repairing small holes eaten away by cavities, a dental crown provides more comprehensive protection for teeth that are severely damaged or misshapen.

The Process of Getting a Dental Crown

First, you’ll meet with Dr. Cote or Dr. Schope to discuss the details of your unique treatment. This is the “consultation” part of the process and is important for making sure you and our skilled dentists are on the same page. This is also when you’ll be examined for any existing oral conditions that could interfere with the treatment process.

From there, we’ll send your preferred crown customizations to a dental lab, where they’ll start to fabricate your permanent crown out of the materials you chose (gold, ceramic, zirconia, porcelain, or porcelain fused to metal). It will take about a week or two to create your crown, so in the meantime, Dr. Cote and Dr. Schope will provide you with a temporary restoration. That way, your tooth will still be protected while you wait!

Once your crown is crafted, all that’s left to do is return to our office for your final placement.
