Dental Crowns FAQ

  • What is a Dental Crown?

    A dental crown can be described as a cap resembling a tooth in shape. Dentists employ these crowns to repair teeth that are fragile, fractured, or affected by decay.

    The crown is designed to encase the entire tooth like a well-fitting hat. To guarantee an accurate fit, the dentist will securely remove a minor portion of enamel before affixing the new crown.

    Dental professionals create these crowns using materials such as resin, metal, and porcelain.

  • Typically, how long does a dental crown last?

    On average, dental crowns tend to last between five to fifteen years. Observing signs of wear, deterioration, or harm indicates the need for replacing the dental crown.

  • When will you need a dental crown?

    Crowns fulfil various roles. A dental crown might be necessary when:

    • Reinforcing a compromised tooth's strength.
    • Safeguarding and providing support to a fractured tooth.
    • Renewing a tooth that has been worn down or fractured.
    • Securing a dental bridge firmly in position.
    • Concealing a tooth with intense staining a discolouration.
    • Enveloping a tooth that has undergone root canal treatment.
    • Encasing a dental implant.
