What Does the Dental Crown Procedure Involve?

Watch on YouTube: “Dental Crowns Procedure “
Dental Crowns Procedure
  • The procedure starts with the dentist numbing the tooth/teeth in question.
  • Then, the tooth is trimmed down and prepared for the crown.
  • This reduces the size and the bulkiness of the crown needed, ensuring a more comfortable fit. A temporary crown can then be made to cover the area.
  • Next, the dentist takes an impression of your teeth.
  • Once the full mouth impression is taken, it is sent to a lab.
  • Either the lab will make a temporary crown, or the temporary crown will be made chairside.
  • Next, the dentist will take the shade of your teeth. This way, your new crown will match the natural color of your teeth.
  • You will get a temporary crown while your permanent one is being made.
  • The dentist will try the permanent crown in to ensure it fits, and make any necessary adjustments.
  • Once you and the dentist agree that the crown is comfortable it can be cemented into place. [5]
  • Once the cement has dried, and any excess material has been cleaned away, your smile will be restored to its former glory.
