What Are Dental Crowns?

What Are Dental Crowns?
Your teeth may suffer damage over time. There are many potential causes including tooth decay, trauma, or simple wear and tear that could lead to a change in the shape or size of the tooth. Dental crowns are caps that fit over your teeth and have the shape of teeth. The crown gives the tooth back its original size, shape, strength, and look.
The crown strengthens the tooth and guards it against further harm. Another application for crowns is to conceal a tooth that is malformed or discoloured. A crown-restored tooth closely resembles a natural tooth in appearance and function.
The dental crown is affixed in place to your teeth and covers the visible part of the tooth.
Why Would I Need A Dental Crown?

Why Would I Need A Dental Crown?
You could be a candidate for dental crowns for a variety of reasons including:
- Keeping a weak tooth from breaking if parts of it are cracked
- Keeping a weak decayed tooth from breaking
- Restoring a worn-down tooth
- Creating cover and support for a tooth with a substantial filling
- Holding a dental bridge in place
- Covering discoloured teeth
- Covering a dental implant
- Covering a tooth that has undergone root canal therapy
What Are Dental Crowns Made Of?

What Are Dental Crowns Made Of?
Various materials may be used to create permanent crowns including:
Metal: Metal crowns are the least likely to chip or break, wear down the least quickly, and only need a small portion of your tooth to be removed.
Porcelain-fused-to-metal: Since they have a more natural tooth colour, this kind of dental crown can be matched to the shade of the neighbouring teeth.
All-resin: Resin-based dental crowns are typically less expensive than other crown materials. They do, however, deteriorate more quickly than porcelain fused to metal crowns.
All-ceramic or all-porcelain: Compared to other crown types, these kinds of dental crowns offer the closest approximation to shade matching. They’re also a wise choice if you’re allergic to metal.
Pressed ceramic: There is a firm inner core in these dental crowns. Dental crowns made of pressed ceramic take the place of the metal liners used in all-ceramic crown production.
How Long Do Dental Crowns Last?

How Long Do Dental Crowns Last?
Dental crowns typically last five to fifteen years.
The material used, your dental hygiene practices, and other lifestyle factors can all affect how long a crown can last. A good oral hygiene routine is crucial to the durability of a crown.
Even if there are no tell-tale indicators of trouble, you should have yours examined if you’ve had it for more than ten years. Our dentists can spot small problems that would go unnoticed otherwise. The sooner any problems are found, the more treatment options you’ll have.
The amount of wear and tear a crown experience, how well you practise good oral hygiene, and your own mouth-related behaviours can all affect how long a crown will last. These mouth-related habits can include things like grinding or clenching your teeth.
Dental Crown FAQs
Same-day dental crowns are molded, made, and placed all in one day using CEREC technology. These dental crowns will fit just like any other crowns and take a fraction of the time to prepare. CEREC is a process that allows dentists to provide patients with the best care for affordable prices and in a time-friendly manner. This process involves using computer-assisted design to create custom crowns for every patient for the best fit.

CEREC is an acronym that represents “Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics”. This is the simplified process that dentists use to provide patients with crown treatments on the same day. The three key words in the acronym are Chairside, Economical, and Ceramic. Chairside refers to the practice of creating a comfortable crown while you wait. Economical means that this option is cost-effective and affordable. Ceramic is the material that the crowns are made of.

CEREC dental crowns are made from ceramic or resin materials. With these materials and the technology used to create the crowns, they have a comfortable and painless fit. These crowns are also custom painted to match the colour of your teeth to provide discretion and aesthetics.

Same-day crowns remove the need for temporary crowns by providing the same quality of permanent crowns in one day. There is also significant time saved by having crowns put in the same day as opposed to waiting weeks or months. CEREC technology allows our dental team to create high-quality crowns made from ceramic or resin. This process also results in better fitting crowns without using dental putty and creates better aesthetics with colours that can be customized to match your teeth.
