Damaged Teeth? Renew Your Smile with Dental Crowns

It only takes one chipped, cracked, or broken tooth to ruin your smile! Fortunately, that tooth doesn’t have to stay in bad shape for long! Dr. Daniel Cobb and the team can repair a compromised tooth and restore your smile’s appearance through dental crown treatment. If you live in Centerville, Ohio, or a nearby community, you can visit Alex Bell Dental for your dental crown procedure.

How Crowns Work 

Although teeth are strong, they’re not impervious to damage. A facial injury can result in chipped, cracked, or broken teeth. Teeth can also sustain damage from severe decay. Damaged teeth can ruin your smile due to their unsightly appearance, especially if they’re front and center. Your Centerville, Ohio, dentist offers a solution to damaged teeth through dental crown treatment. 

Dental crowns are tooth-shaped, porcelain caps that fit over damaged teeth to restore their structure and appearance. These caps are custom-made to conform to your natural teeth’ shape, size, and color to help them blend right in.  

Dr. Cobb may recommend crown treatment to:

• Repair a cracked or broken tooth 
• Fortify weak or worn teeth 
• Salvage compromised teeth to avoid tooth loss 
• Restore a damaged tooth’s usefulness 
• Renew your smile’s appearance 

The Dental Crown Procedure

Getting a crown is a process that can take two dental visits. During your initial visit, we’ll evaluate your situation to determine if your tooth can be repaired with a crown. If so, we’ll prepare your tooth by removing decay, smoothing sharp edges, or building it up to accommodate a crown. Next, we’ll take impressions of your tooth to send to a lab where custom crowns are fabricated. This process may take up to two weeks. If necessary, we’ll temporarily crown your tooth during the interim period. When your permanent crown is ready, we’ll schedule a second visit to have it fitted and cemented in place to complete your treatment.
