Dental Crowns

Dental Crowns in Peabody, MA

Do you have a tooth that’s cracked, discolored, misshaped, or decayed? Dental crowns are an excellent cosmetic dentistry method that can restore the aesthetics and function of your teeth. A dental crown (also called a tooth crown) acts as dental armor for functionally and cosmetically compromised teeth, which can be used to strengthen weakened teeth, improve aesthetics, and even correct misalignments or dental spacing issues.

When you schedule an appointment at Miel Dental Aesthetics Peabody, Dr. Melissa Torres will discuss everything you need to know about dental crowns so that you can make an educated decision on the best solution for your oral health needs. We are proud to be able to offer same-day services.

Benefits

One of the best dental treatments available today is dental crowns. Crowns provide several restorative benefits that can improve overall dental health, including protection from further dental damage, improved dental functions like biting and chewing, and the ever-important cosmetic value it brings back to your smile.

In addition to restoring strength and aesthetics to the natural tooth, dental crowns also provide long-term protection by safeguarding against further damage or decay. Investing in dental crowns for visible front teeth can give you a sparkling smile for years to come!

Steps

The tooth crown procedure is a tried-and-true dental solution to restore damaged teeth and fortify weak dental structures. First, our dental team will meet with you for a virtual consultation to discuss your treatment options and weigh the pros and cons of treatment.

During the dental crown procedure, Dr. Torres will prepare the tooth by removing the unhealthy tissue and filing it down before placement of the dental crown to ensure a snug fit over the existing tooth structure. This process helps ensure that your dental restoration looks natural and blends well with surrounding teeth. While your crown is being made, Dr. Torres will place a temporary crown that is fully functional and aesthetically pleasing until she can place the final crown. You’ll walk away with a much stronger tooth at the end of this treatment, thanks to your new dental crown!

1. I need a front tooth crown. Will it be noticeable?

Dental crowns can be made from various materials. We strongly suggest a ceramic crown when one needs a front tooth crown. Since ceramic material closely mimics the translucency and color of enamel, your front tooth crown should blend naturally into the smile line.

2. I am experiencing tooth crown pain. What should I do?

If you currently have a dental crown and are experiencing discomfort, this can be a sign that the underlying tooth is cracked or the crown itself is not properly bonded to the tooth. If you’re experiencing tooth crown pain, schedule an emergency dental appointment as soon as possible.

Veneer And Crown Aftercare

It is vital to maintain a good oral hygiene routine after getting dental veneers or crowns. This is critical because although the natural tooth is covered by the veneer or crown, food or bacteria can still get trapped beneath or around the veneer.
