 Dental crowns are also known as caps. They are primarily used in cases where the tooth has become extremely damaged. They are fitted on in order to prevent further damage being done to the tooth, such as decay.
In general, dental crowns are considered to be highly effective and usually last for a very long time. Unfortunately, there are times when they will break and you will have to look for a new one. If this has happened to you, then take a look at the ways we will be able to help! How We Can Help When Dental Crowns Go SouthIf you do experience a problem with a crown that has been fitted, make sure to come to us immediately as soon as you can. The longer that you leave it, the more your teeth will be at risk of decay.The unfortunate fact is that once a dental crown has been broken, it cannot be fixed. We will have to remove it completely and replace it with another one. Before the procedure, we can help you decide what type of crown you would like. There are usually several different types, although it is usually recommended that you choose the strongest. Ceramic, resin, porcelain and stainless steel are some of the most common types. You will usually have to undergo two visits to us: one to remove the old crown and one to add a new one. If you are worried about the current state of your crown or would like to know more, you can always come in and see us. We will be happy to make an appointment with you and provide you with any further advice. Make sure to give us information on the state of your crowns as well! If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment, please call us at (360) 373-3515 today. |
