Long-Lasting Dental Replacements

Dental crowns are a common restorative dental solution, and they are an effective replacement option for the part of a damaged tooth above the gumline. This helps to regain full function of that tooth for biting, chewing, and speaking. At Casa Dental, our team is dedicated to providing quality services and our dental crowns can last for 20 to 30 years when well maintained with good oral hygiene and regular visits to the dentist. They also help to maintain a bright smile as your dental provider can design the crown to match your natural teeth.

Casa Dental offers a variety of tooth restoration options, including dental crowns. Call our team today at (806) 835-5030 or use our online form to schedule an appointment.

When Do You Need a Dental Crown?

Your dentist may recommend a dental crown if you have lost a tooth, or if it is decayed or broken beyond other forms of repair. In the case of a full tooth replacement, a dental implant will work as prosthetic roots while your dentist will set a crown to act as the visible part of the new tooth. You may also get a dental crown after a root canal if the cavity left is too big for a standard dental filling.

The Dental Crown Process

A dental crown requires at least two visits to the dentist. During the first appointment, we will thoroughly remove any decay or infection from the damaged tooth. Then we will shape it, so it is ready to attach a temporary crown for a few weeks while your permanent one gets built. During the next visit, we will swap the temporary crown for the definitive one.

If the dental crown is part of more extensive dental work, such as a root canal or getting a dental implant, additional appointments may be necessary, but we will make sure to discuss your treatment plan with you before beginning the process.
