If you're self-conscious about your smile due to cracked, broken, decayed
or worn teeth, we can bring back your healthy, natural-looking smile
with crowns. A filling can restore a small defect in a tooth, but a crown
is the most durable, strongest way to restore a tooth with extensive
damage, front or back for the long term. With all the materials and techniques
that dentistry has, crowns can be totally natural looking.
Additional
benefits of crowns are correcting bite problems, closing spaces between
teeth, changing the angulations of teeth, and they can
be used to replace missing teeth permanently, as part of a bridge,
or over a dental implant.
One Visit Crowns
You go to the dentist because of toothache, or maybe for your bi-annual checkup, and you get the bad news: you need a crown. You'll have to schedule two appointments - one for preparation and placement of a temporary crown, and one for placement of the permanent crown. Do you have that kind of time to spare? Between the appointments, your temporary crown could crack or fall out, and then you'd have to make yet another trip to the dentist. A crown is important, though, so you shouldn't delay treatment. A crown can salvage a tooth that may otherwise have to be removed and replaced with a prosthetic.
We Feel Your Pain
We understand the inconvenience patients face with a traditional crown, and because your time is as valuable as your smile, we now use a revolutionary tool that mills a permanent crown in about an hour: CEREC.
How CEREC Works
