Dental crowns restore damaged, worn, or weakened teeth with custom protection that looks natural and feels strong.
Dental crowns are used to repair individual teeth that have experienced significant decay or damage. At Reflections Dental in Peoria, AZ, we provide custom crown restorations designed to cover and protect the visible part of a damaged tooth while restoring its natural size and shape. These crowns are carefully crafted to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth. They are commonly used to restore broken, decayed, misshapen, or otherwise damaged teeth. Additionally, crowns can be part of a dental bridge or attached to implants to replace missing teeth. Schedule a consultation with our dental team to see if a crown is the right option to improve your smile’s health and appearance.
The dental crown process usually takes place over two visits. During the first appointment, one of our experienced dentists will numb your damaged tooth with local anesthesia and may offer sedation options to enhance your comfort. After cleaning the affected area, an impression of your tooth will be taken and sent to a trusted dental lab to create your custom crown. Meanwhile, a temporary crown will be placed to protect your tooth and maintain your smile’s appearance. You’ll return to Reflections Dental in a few weeks to have the temporary crown removed and your permanent restoration fitted and secured.
Once your custom crown is placed, it will be adjusted as needed to ensure a comfortable and balanced bite. Our team will provide instructions on how to care for your crown, including proper brushing and flossing techniques. During your regular biannual exams, your dentist will check the crown’s condition along with your overall oral health. With proper care, a dental crown can preserve your tooth’s function and appearance for many years. If your crown becomes loose or falls off, contact Reflections Dental promptly. Avoid trying to fix or reattach it yourself, as this can cause damage.
