Everything you need to know

What is a crown?

A crown is a tooth-shaped dental restoration that is used to cap or completely encase a single damaged tooth or dental implant. They can be made from a variety of materials and are permanently bonded to their foundation with dental cement.

There are three types of dental crowns:

Porcelain fused to metal: Porcelain is fused on a metal shell for a natural appearance of crowns which are suitable for both front and back teeth.

All-Ceramic: These crowns look the most lifelike as they are made from natural materials like feldspar and zirconia. They are also biocompatible, and are better for those who are allergic to metal. Zirconia crowns are most preferred when it comes to dental aesthetics and smile makeovers.

All-Resin: These are made from composite resin, such as acrylic polymers mixed with silicon dioxide, and are very affordable. The acrylics used can be color-matched to natural teeth, but they are less durable and more susceptible to fractures.

What is the procedure for dental crown restoration?

First visit: During the first visit, we examine the tooth and its root to determine whether a crown is a suitable method of restoration, or if additional procedures would be required. The examination may involve analyzing X-rays and impressions of the patient’s bite.

Preparation: The procedure begins by numbing the tooth’s gum with local anesthesia. Then, the tooth is reshaped by filing. A dental impression is taken and sent to a lab which manufactures a customised well-fitting crown. An impression of the surrounding teeth is also taken to ensure that the crown perfectly integrates with your bite.

Second visit: During the second visit, the dentist will check the fit and color of the crown before permanently cementing it in place. This is done with precision, as any gaps between the crown and the tooth could lead to bacterial growth causing further decay and increasing the likelihood of a fracture.

How long does the treatment take?

Avana, with the help of its own associated Dental Lab can deliver the crown in a single day. This avoids multiple visits and saves a lot of time. A full mouth rehabilitation can be completed in 2 or 3 days.

Will the crown be noticeable?

The crown will be made to match your other teeth as closely as possible and shall not look different at all. The shade of the surrounding teeth will be recorded, to make sure that the colour looks natural and matches those teeth.

Will the crown feel different?

Because the shape of the crown will be slightly different from the shape of your tooth before it was crowned, you may be aware of it at first. Within a few days it should feel fine, and you will not notice it.
