Dental Crowns Rebuild Damaged Teeth

If you have missing or damaged teeth, a dental crown can be used to restore your smile. Dr. Raj may recommend this service in the following situations:

• To cover a damaged or discolored tooth
• To replace a missing tooth
• To protect a weak tooth
• To support both ends of a bridge
• To cover a tooth that has received dental implants or has undergone root canal therapy

Crowns are manufactured using resin, porcelain, ceramic, or stainless steel. We will be able to advise you on which material will suit your particular problem.

When you visit Center One Dental in Canonsburg, PA for a dental crown appointment, we will first examine your tooth to determine whether a crown can be supported. The tooth is then filled to prepare it for crown installation. In cases where a tooth is broken or severely damaged, the filling has to be to be large enough for the tooth to be properly able to receive the crown. Once the tooth has been filled and shaped, an impression is taken and sent to a dental lab for preparation of a custom crown. Until the permanent crown is ready, a temporary one is placed to cover the tooth. During your second visit, the temporary crown is removed and the permanent one is fastened to the tooth with a special adhesive.
