Dental Crowns: Restoring Strength and Beauty to Your Smile

At Gamboa Dental Group, we specialize in restoring smiles with dental crowns, offering a blend of durability, functionality, and aesthetic appeal. Dental crowns are a cornerstone of restorative dentistry, designed to protect, cover, and restore the shape of your teeth when fillings don’t solve the problem.

Whether your tooth is weakened, damaged, or simply in need of cosmetic enhancement, our dental crowns provide a seamless, natural-looking solution. Below, we delve into the process, benefits, and reasons why choosing Gamboa Dental Group for your dental crown treatment is a step towards a healthier, more beautiful smile.

Understanding Dental Crowns

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over a tooth to cover it, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are used for several reasons, including to protect a weak tooth from breaking, restore a broken tooth, cover and support a tooth with a large filling, hold a dental bridge in place, and cover misshapen or severely discolored teeth. We also restore a dental implant with an abutment-supported dental porcelain crown.

The Benefits of Dental Crowns

Durability: Made from materials like porcelain, and ceramic, dental crowns are built to last, often enduring for decades with proper care.

Functionality: Crowns restore full functionality to damaged teeth, allowing you to eat, chew, and speak with ease.

Aesthetic Appeal: Crafted to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, crowns provide a seamless, aesthetically pleasing addition to your smile.

Protection: By encasing the entire visible portion of a tooth, crowns offer comprehensive protection against further decay, damage, or wear.

The Dental Crown Process at Gamboa Dental Group

Consultation and Evaluation: Your journey begins with a detailed consultation where we assess the health of your teeth and determine if a crown is the most suitable solution for your needs. This may involve taking X-rays to evaluate the roots of the tooth receiving the crown and surrounding bone.

Preparation: The Foundation for Your Crown

The preparation stage is crucial, as it sets the foundation for your new crown. The tooth requiring the crown undergoes a transformation, being carefully reshaped along its top and sides. This reshaping is essential to make sufficient space for the crown, ensuring it fits seamlessly without affecting the neighboring teeth.

We perform this procedure under local anesthesia, prioritizing your comfort and minimizing any discomfort. After the tooth is reshaped, we make a detailed impression of your tooth. This impression is paramount in creating a precise model for your crown, ensuring it will be a perfect match for your bite and align harmoniously with your surrounding teeth.

Temporary Crown: Protecting Your Smile

While your bespoke crown is being crafted, it’s important to protect the reshaped tooth and keep your smile looking its best. A temporary crown is placed over the tooth to serve this purpose. Made from a high-quality, durable material, this temporary crown is designed to fit comfortably and look natural, allowing you to go about your daily life without concern.

The temporary crown also plays a critical role in protecting the prepared tooth from damage and sensitivity, ensuring the area remains healthy and ready for the permanent crown.

Fitting Your Permanent Crown: Precision and Perfection

The arrival of your custom-made crown marks an exciting step in your journey. We’ll schedule a visit to transition from the temporary to the permanent crown. This visit is about more than just fitting; it’s about ensuring perfection.

We carefully remove the temporary crown and place the new one, checking the fit, bite, and alignment meticulously. Adjustments are made as necessary, focusing on both the functionality and the aesthetic appeal of the crown. This step is vital to ensure that your crown not only looks natural but also feels comfortable and enhances your overall oral health.

Final Adjustments and Cementing: Completing Your Smile

Once we’re satisfied with the fit and appearance of your crown, the final step is cementing it into place. This process involves securing the crown onto your tooth with a special dental cement, designed for its durability and strength.

We then make any necessary final adjustments to ensure the crown is perfectly aligned with your bite. This final step is crucial for restoring the full functionality of your tooth, allowing you to bite, chew, and speak with ease. Once cemented, your dental crown fully restores your tooth, blending indistinguishably with your natural teeth and enhancing the beauty of your smile.
