About Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are used widely in modern dentistry for many purposes from cosmetic to structural.

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over a tooth – covering the tooth to restore its shape and size, strength, and/or to improve its appearance. The crowns, when cemented into place, fully encase the entire visible portion of a tooth that lies at and above the gum line.

Why is a Dental Crown/Cap Needed?

A dental crown ( dental cap) may be needed when at least one of the following occurs:

• To protect a weak tooth (for instance, from decay) from breaking or to hold together parts of a cracked tooth
• To restore an already broken tooth or a tooth that has been severely worn down
• To cover and support a tooth with a large filling when there isn’t a lot of tooth left
• To hold a dental bridge in place
• To cover misshapen or severely discolored teeth
• To cover a dental implant

Dental Crown/Cap Types

If we decide that you are in need of a full crown, there are a few different options for the repair of your tooth. These options include a full porcelain crown, a porcelain fused to metal or gold crown, or a full gold crown. We will make the determination as to which of these options is the most appropriate for your situation. You can be comfortable in knowing that your new tooth will be virtually unnoticeable and will flawlessly complement the rest of your smile.

Dental Crown Procedure

When we have decided to go ahead with a full crown restoration, we will set aside 2-3 appointments for the entire process. Although the majority of crowns are completed in two visits, there is sometimes a need for a third visit to ensure a proper fit.

The procedure begins with the removal of all decay in the tooth. Once we have removed the decay, we will take an impression of the tooth. This impression will be sent to our lab where your new restoration will be crafted. While this new tooth is created, we will provide you with a temporary restoration. Our temporary restorations will resemble your natural teeth so that you can continue with your daily life without worrying about a missing or incompatible tooth.

During your second visit to the office, we will proceed with the placement of your final restoration. This crown will be fitted comfortably into the mouth. We will make every effort to ensure that the new tooth feels exactly like one of your natural teeth. The final step in the process is to cement the crown into your mouth, leaving you with a beautifully restored smile.

How long can dental crowns last?

The crown’s lifespan depends on the forces you expose the crown to (such as chewing, biting, accidental trauma, or tooth grinding) and how well you keep the tooth to which it is cemented free of dental plaque.

It is quite reasonable to expect that a dental crown will last 15 years, or even longer, if you follow proper care instructions. Crowns over implants tend to last longer than crowns over teeth.

How Much Do Crowns Cost?

The cost of a dental crown can vary depending on the dental professional, the region and the type of crown. The most expensive crowns are made of porcelain. Dental crown can cost up to $900 at some dental offices, and we are proud to say that ArizonaCrowns.com has one of the best offers on dental crowns in Phoenix AZ.

The permanent crown

Permanent crowns should have tight contacts to prevent food impaction. If you have a fracture of the porcelain or an open or loose contact, please make an appointment for evaluation. Open contacts can lead to periodontal disease and dental decay over a period of time if not corrected. It is important to floss the margins of crowns next to the gum line below the contact area to prevent periodontal disease and dental decry even with perfectly fitted crowns.

With regular cleanings and check ups the permanent crown should last you many years. Decay may occur around the edges of the crown so it’s important to have it checked regularly and cleaned by the dental hygienist. We suggest that you also use a special dental fluoride once a day after thorough brushing to protect your new crowns.

Porcelain to metal crowns often have a metal collar on the inside (tongue side) near the gum line. This is normal and not a sign of missing porcelain or a cavity. It allows for a finer and thinner fit of the crown to the tooth.

Porcelain to metal crowns may have a spot of metal showing through the porcelain after the bite has been adjusted. This does not necessarily mean there is a problem or a weakening of the tooth. If it is a cosmetic problem, the crown may be remade when possible.

The staff and doctors wish you the very best with your new crown and bridge dentistry.
