What is a Dental Crown?

 A dental crown or cap is a tooth-shaped cover that fits over a prepared tooth. A crown is fabricated from metal and or porcelain and is used to restore the function and appearance of a tooth

When is a Crown Needed?

The answer to this question is somewhat complicated because crowns can be used for a number of different reasons. Crowns can be used in general restorative dentistry to restore the function and shape of teeth that have been broken down by decay or damaged from injuries. 

Process of Getting a Dental Crown in Bristol, CT

So how do you get a dental crown? First, the decay or damage must be removed from your tooth. The healthy part of your tooth will also need to be shaped so that it can support the new crown without changing your bite. An impression of the prepared tooth will then be taken and sent to our lab to create the crown. A temporary crown will be fabricated and temporarily cemented until the delivery of the permanent crown
