Crowns
At Kamakshi Dental, we specialize in restoring damaged teeth with high-quality dental crowns, ensuring your smile is beautiful and functional. Dental crowns, often called caps, are custom-made restorations that cover the entire visible portion of a tooth, providing strength, durability, and a flawless aesthetic match to your natural teeth. Whether you’re looking to repair a damaged tooth, protect a weak tooth from further decay, or cover a dental implant, our single-visit crown service streamlines the process without sacrificing the personalized care and attention to detail we’re known for.
What are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are prosthetic devices designed to encase a tooth up to the gum line fully. Made from materials like porcelain, ceramic, or metal alloys, crowns are used to restore the shape, size, strength, and appearance of a tooth that has been compromised by decay or damage or as part of a cosmetic enhancement. They are permanently bonded to the tooth and can only be removed by a dentist.
The Need for Dental Crowns
Crowns are recommended for various dental issues, including:
- Protecting a weak tooth from breaking or holding together parts of a cracked tooth
- Restoring an already broken tooth or a tooth that has been severely worn down
- Covering and supporting a tooth with a large filling when there aren’t a lot of teeth left
- Holding a dental bridge in place
- Covering misshapen or severely discoloured teeth
- Covering a dental implant
The Process
The journey to a restored smile with dental implants is a meticulous process characterized by personalized care and cutting-edge technology
Consultation and Examination
Your journey begins with a comprehensive evaluation, where we discuss your dental history, aesthetic goals, and the best materials for your crown based on the location and function of the tooth.
Preparation
The tooth receiving the crown is reshaped along the chewing surface and sides to make room for the crown itself. This process is done under local anaesthesia to ensure comfort.
Digital Impressions
We utilize advanced digital scanning technology to create a precise 3D model of your tooth, which is used to design your custom crown.
On-Site Milling and Creation
Our state-of-the-art in-office milling equipment fabricates your crown during the same visit, eliminating the need for temporary crowns and multiple appointments.
Fitting and Bonding
Once your crown is ready, we’ll fit it onto your tooth, make any necessary adjustments, and then bond it in place, instantly improving your tooth’s appearance and function.
