What Are Dental Crowns?

 

dental crown is a tooth-shaped, prosthetic device used by dentists to cover or restore damaged teeth. The crown acts as a “cap” for the tooth and helps to reinstate the tooth’s appearance and strength. At our Dental Clinic, your new porcelain crowns will look and feel almost identical to your natural teeth. With the use of our new advanced 3D technology, your dentist is able to create natural-looking, perfectly fitting dental crowns right here in our clinic in just one or two appointment!  The Bryan Dental in Bryan and College Station area is conveniently located near to the Briarcrest Walmart  is the best dentist office near your location.

Your dentist may recommend a dental crown for a number of reasons, whether they be cosmetic, preventative or rehabilitation. These include:

  • Improving the appearance of damaged, 
  • cracked, misshaped or badly stained teeth
  • Providing protection to weak teeth to prevent breakages
  • Cover and protect a dental implant, a tooth with a large filling or root canal
  • Supporting your dental implants

Your dentist will firstly assess and prepare the area based on your own unique requirements. The camera then captures a 3-D image of your tooth and you and your dentist will be able to view this scan directly on the computer screen. Using the 3-D scan, your dentist will then designs your crown on-site, milling it out of a ceramic block to create the crown before it’s polished, bonded and fitted. Thanks to the advanced 3-D modelling and precision machinery, your crown can be fitted in less than 2 hours.

Why CEREC Crowns?

There are many benefits of a CEREC restoration. (CEREC stands for Chair-side Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics.) The introduction of new 3D technology means no more lengthy waits or multiple visits in order to have crowns fitted. Best of all, the process of fitting temporary crowns is eliminated, and you can leave the practice with permanent, durable, comfortable, stain-resistant crowns after just one visit. A quick, efficient CEREC crown treatment costs no more than conventional crowns, plus the procedure is far less invasive. If u are interested for Inlays, Onlays and Crowns then Quite often we’re asked what the difference is between inlays and onlays vs crowns, and why one procedure may be chosen over another. In the case that your teeth only have minor decay or damage, your dentist may recommend an inlay or onlay to restore any damage. Also known as porcelain fillings, an inlay or onlay is a great solution if the tooth does not require a crown “cap”, and can help avoid the need for additional dental work in the future.
