Transform Your Smile with Custom Durable Dental Crowns and Procedure

A St. Pete dental crowns is a restorative treatment in which a tooth-shaped cap is placed on top of a natural tooth to protect it. Dental crowns are custom-made in a dental laboratory, colour-matched and designed to blend in seamlessly with the patient's existing teeth. Dental crowns fit over the entire tooth and are permanently cemented onto the existing tooth structure, much like a cover for your tooth, making them a long-lasting and durable option for tooth restoration.

The Dental Crowns Treatment Procedure.

After your dentist has discussed St. Pete dental crowns treatment with you in detail and created a treatment plan tailored to your smile, your dental crown treatment will be completed over two separate visits.

The dentist will prepare the tooth for the St. Pete dental crowns during the first appointment, which typically lasts 60-90 minutes, by shaping the remaining tooth structure and removing some enamel to create a strong foundation and new tooth shape onto which the crown will fit.

The dentist will then take digital impressions of the tooth, scanning its shape and structure so that a custom St. Pete dental crowns can be fabricated in the dental laboratory to the exact specifications needed. A temporary crown will be fitted by the dentist to protect the prepared tooth until the permanent crown is in place.

We use premium, high-quality dental laboratories to create our dental crowns, resulting in a waiting period of between two to four weeks for the custom crown to be made. Following this, a second appointment is scheduled, typically lasting 30-45 minutes, during which the new crown is permanently cemented onto the prepared tooth structure.

The dentist will inspect the new St. Pete dental crowns fit and appearance to guarantee it is the ideal shape and colour, and once the patient is fully satisfied with the crown's appearance and feel, the treatment will be finished, and your dentist will provide guidance on how to properly care for the crown to ensure a long-lasting restoration.

After Undergoing Root Canal, do I require Dental Crown?

A St. Pete dental crowns may be necessary after root canal treatment in certain cases to protect the treated tooth. The need for a crown depends on the location and position of the tooth, as well as the amount of tooth structure remaining after the procedure. A dental crown may also be recommended to enhance the colour and appearance of a root-treated tooth, which often discolor over time following treatment.

Following root canal treatment, your dentist will advise on the most suitable restoration type, and if a crown is recommended, it is crucial to complete this treatment within the specified timeframe to prevent potential future tooth fracture and damage.
