  2. How Dental Crowns Can Save Your Teeth 1 • Tooth decay, trauma, fillings or even the way you chew can make your teeth wear down. • As a dentist, my endeavor is for you to have your natural teeth for as long as you can. • Thankfully, we have restorative dentistry procedures that deal with the preservation and maintenance of natural teeth.

  3. Signs of Dental Problem 1 • Toothache because of cavity; broken, cracked, impacted, an abscessed tooth; and gum disease • Cavities • Sensitive Teeth • Broken, Cracked, Chipped, Lost, or Impacted Tooth • Stained Teeth

  4. What Are Crowns And Their Benefits 1 • A crown is a tooth-shaped cap, made of ceramic, porcelain, or cement, that covers your damaged tooth entirely above the gum line. • Crowns improve your teeth structure, functionality, and appearance. Usually, a crown is used to: • Provide attachment to bridges • Cover stained, odd-shaped teeth and implants • Fix a damaged tooth, cavity and chipped or worn out fillings • Reconstruct weakened, fractured and broken teeth to prevent them from falling apart • Cover a weakened tooth that requires a large filling

  5. What Is The Procedure For Dental Crowns? • If you are in need of a dental crown in Palo Alto, you will need a couple of visits at your dentist’s office to complete this treatment. • For your first visit, your dentist will numb the area around the tooth to help with any discomfort. • They will use a dental instrument to form and prep the tooth, so the crown will fit properly. • A mold of your tooth will be taken and the temporary crown placed to guard the prep tooth. • The mold is sent to a dental laboratory where a customized crown is made just for you. • If you are satisfied with the shape, color and fit, then the crown will be permanently cemented on your second visit. 1

  6. What You Need To Watch Out For After Your Crown Procedure 1 • Once the numbness has worn off and the crown is permanently placed, you may experience some soreness. • If you are having any discomfort you may take over-the-counter pain medication, as directed by your dentist. • A crown is meant to last a lifetime with proper care. • Remember, a crown may not last forever. It may need to be replaced if it has become faulty or worn down.

  7. The Following Factors Determine The Lifespan of A Crown 1 • How well you maintain your oral hygiene and how you loss and brush your teeth • The food and drinks you consume • Not biting into cold or hard substances with your teeth • The condition of the surrounding teeth and gums

  8. Conclusion • Most times, damaged teeth, filling, and crown cause sensitivity, discomfort, and toothache. • The more regularly you visit your dentist for dental crowns in Palo Alto, the better it is for your oral and overall health as waiting too long can lead to more serious health conditions. 3
