Crowns are a great restorative option for teeth with a significant amount of decay. A tooth with minor chips can also be repaired with a crown before it reaches the point of needing to be extracted or replaced with an implant. At Vista Dental, the safe and non-invasive procedure of installing a crown can be completed in as little as two visits.
The process begins with preparing the tooth by removing any decay. A crown fits over the tooth like a little cap, and to ensure a great fit for the crown, your dentist may need to contour the tooth that remains. When the tooth has been prepared, an impression of the mouth is taken and sent to a dental laboratory for the custom product to be fabricated. Ask us about temporary options to wear while your new crown is being made. Once your custom crown is made, the crown will be cemented into place by your dentist at a second appointment.
