What To Expect From The Creating And Placing Of Your Crown

Posted August 14, 2017 by Wager-Evans Dental

The placing of a dental crown on your tooth will allow you to recover from problems like tooth injuries and serious cavities. With a crown in place, you can depend on a vulnerable tooth to stand up to biting and chewing pressures – in some cases, a crown will allow you to retain a seriously harmed tooth. There are several material types available for use to produce your crown. If you need help for one of your back teeth, a crown made from metal may be the best restoration for you, as these teeth need significant support. If a crown is required for a tooth that is more prominent in your smile, a more esthetically pleasing material may be better for you.

Ceramic Crowns Can Offer Life-Like Restorations

With ceramic, your dentist can provide you with a crown that closely matches the look of your natural teeth. Patients worried that restorative dental work will affect their appearance can be relieved to find that these crowns can allow them to retain a smile that looks completely natural. Metal crowns are often reserved for teeth that are harder to see, and face more difficult biting and chewing pressures.

What You Should Know About Oral Care After Receiving A Crown

Will a dental crown demand changes in how you go about providing routine daily oral care? After receiving a crown, you should still take care to keep it cleaned so that bacteria and food debris do not negatively affect it. By maintaining a smart diet, and keeping up with regular brushing and flossing, you can enjoy successful oral care after receiving a crown. Your dentist can take a look at your crown whenever you come in for a checkup, to make sure there are no issues that need to be addressed.
