Dental crowns are used in both general dentistry and cosmetic dentistry to enhance your smile by improving the look of a damaged or discolored tooth and restoring broken teeth to their original function.

Who is a candidate for dental crowns?

Patients are usually candidates for dental crowns if they have a damaged tooth or teeth and would like to protect their tooth and restore their attractive smile. However, not everyone is a candidate for dental crowns. If a patient’s tooth has had too much of its structure removed, a crown can’t be placed. If your tooth is decayed, it will need to be treated before a dental crown is used. Patients with the following concerns may be ideal candidates for dental crowns:

  • Broken, fractured, or cracked teeth–crowns protect them from further damage and restore the biting ability and appearance.
  • Have had a large filling–a crown restores the tooth and protects the underlying tooth from further damage.
  • Have had a root canal therapy–a crown restores tooth strength and function.
  • Tooth or teeth are damaged by tooth decay–a crown restores the strength and appearance.
  • Have cosmetic issues–crowns create natural-looking, attractive tooth to match your other teeth.

What are the steps in receiving a crown?

A ceramic veneer or dental crown in Naples is a personalized treatment solution that is fitted to your dentistry needs. Whether you want to improve the appearance of your teeth or want to restore a tooth that has been affected by damage or disease, the process to create and apply your crown is the same.

  • Prior to receiving a crown, your tooth will need to be reshaped to accommodate the size and shape of the crown. The tooth will be numbed and excess enamel removed before your dentist proceeds.
  • After the tooth has been shaped, your dentist will take comfortable state of the art digital impressions to ensure the crown or dental veneer is shaped properly to fit snugly over your tooth.
  • The digital impressions are then used to design and create your crown. Our specialists use CEREC technology to create your crown in-office, this process is done the same day in a single visit. Each crown is then hand crafted in detail to our doctors highest standards.
  • Once your crown is ready, it is placed and permanently adheres onto your tooth to restore the look of your smile.

Dental Crown FAQs

How long do crowns last on teeth?

Dental crowns typically last around 5 to 15 years, depending on factors such as oral hygiene, wear and tear, and the material used for the crown. Regular dental check-ups and proper care can help extend their lifespan.

Is it painful to get a crown?

The process of getting a dental crown is generally not painful as it is performed under local anesthesia to numb the area. However, some patients might experience minor discomfort or sensitivity after the procedure, which usually subsides within a few days.

Can you get tooth decay under a crown?

Yes, tooth decay can potentially develop under a dental crown if there is a gap or improper fit, allowing bacteria to accumulate and cause decay. Regular dental check-ups and proper oral hygiene are essential to prevent such issues.

How long do you have to wait to eat after getting a crown?

After getting a dental crown, it's advisable to wait for about 1 to 2 hours before eating to allow the anesthesia to wear off and the crown to set properly. It's also recommended to avoid extremely hot or cold foods and to start with softer foods initially.
