A dental crown is a type of dental restoration that is used to repair a damaged or decayed tooth. It is also sometimes used to improve the appearance of a misshapen or discolored tooth.
During a dental crown procedure, the dentist will prepare the damaged tooth by removing any decayed or damaged material and shaping it to fit the crown. An impression of the tooth is then made, which is sent to a dental laboratory to create the custom-made crown.
In some cases, the dentist may place a temporary crown on the tooth while the permanent crown is being made.
When the permanent crown is ready, the dentist will remove the temporary crown and place the permanent crown onto the tooth, making any necessary adjustments to ensure a proper fit. The crown is then cemented in place, providing a strong and durable restoration for the damaged tooth.
Dental crown procedures are usually performed under local anesthesia, which means that the patient is awake but numbed in the treated area. The procedure can take several hours, depending on the extent of the damage to the tooth.
After this procedure, patients may experience some sensitivity or discomfort for several days, but this can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. They should also avoid hard or sticky foods for a few days after the procedure to allow for proper healing.
