Dental Crowns FAQs
What is a dental crown and why would I need one?
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that covers a damaged or weakened tooth. You may need one to restore a broken tooth, protect it after a root canal, replace a large filling, or improve the shape and appearance of a tooth.
How long does a dental crown last?
With proper care, a crown can last 10 to 15 years, or even longer. Avoiding hard foods, maintaining good oral hygiene, and attending regular dental check-ups will help extend its lifespan.
Will the crown look like a natural tooth?
Yes. We use high-quality porcelain and ceramic materials that match the color, shape, and feel of your natural teeth. Most patients can’t tell the difference between a crown and their real tooth.
Is the crown procedure painful?
Not at all. The area is numbed with local anesthetic during the procedure. You may feel slight pressure, but no pain. Our team is gentle and experienced at helping patients feel comfortable.
How many appointments are needed to fit a crown?
Typically, it takes two visits — one for preparation and one for placement. In some cases, we can offer same-day crowns using advanced scanning and milling technology.
What should I do if my crown falls out?
Keep the crown safe and contact us immediately. Don’t try to reattach it with glue. We’ll assess the tooth and either re-bond or replace the crown as needed.
Can I eat normally with a crown?
Yes. Once your crown is fitted, you can eat and speak normally. We advise avoiding very sticky or hard foods immediately after the procedure to allow proper settling.
