Dental Crowns at Familia Dental

Dental crowns deliver outstanding protection and durability for teeth that have been compromised. These cap-like restorations envelop the visible part of your tooth above the gum line, offering reliable service for up to 15 years when maintained properly. Crowns effectively address a variety of dental challenges, such as extensive cavities, fractured teeth, eroded enamel, and teeth that have received root canal treatment.

• Restore complete chewing capability for impaired teeth
• Avert further decay or structural compromise
• Preserve natural facial contours and jaw alignment
• Integrate harmoniously with your surrounding teeth

Creating your personalized crown generally necessitates two relaxed visits to our office. In the initial appointment, Dr. Rohit Vadlamani and Dr. Alina Aryal meticulously reshape the affected tooth and take detailed impressions. A temporary crown will safeguard your tooth while our dental lab fabricates your permanent restoration. During the follow-up visit, we will remove the temporary crown and securely bond your new crown, confirming the fit and bite alignment before you depart from our practice.

What is the lifespan of dental crowns?

With diligent oral hygiene and consistent dental visits, most crowns can last between 10 to 15 years.

What materials are utilized for dental crowns?

We provide options such as porcelain, ceramic, and porcelain fused to metal crowns, each offering remarkable durability and aesthetically pleasing results tailored to various clinical situations.

Are there special care requirements for dental crowns?

Teeth with crowns require the same daily brushing and flossing as your natural teeth, along with avoiding hard foods that might jeopardize the restoration.

Can dental crowns be whitened?

The materials used for crowns do not respond to whitening treatments, so we will ensure your crown is matched to your preferred tooth color prior to placement.
