If your teeth sustain damage either from trauma, decay, or biting into something hard, a dental crown can save your tooth, provide protection, and eliminate pain or sensitivity common with damaged teeth.
Each custom crown created in our office is designed to blend in perfectly with your smile while providing long-term reliability and durability. By opting for a dental crown, you are making a great choice for protecting the beauty and function of your smile.
We begin by removing any decay or damaged tooth structure while making space for your new restoration. Your comfort is our top priority! Our gentle dentists will numb your tooth, making your treatment pain-free.
Unlike most dental offices, we eliminate the need for multiple visits in order to successfully restore the appearance and function of your teeth. CEREC (chairside economic restoration of esthetic ceramics) uses the latest CAD/CAM technology to provide you with the best results in a timely fashion.
Using 3-D scanning technology, we take a digital impression of your teeth, eliminating the need for gooey, easily distorted impressions. Our patients truly appreciate this convenience and our doctors appreciate the accuracy.
Once we scan your tooth, we send it to our CEREC software where it will be processed and transmitted to our milling chamber where your restoration will be created from a single piece of ceramic or porcelain.
After milling, we glaze and color the restoration to match your natural teeth. The result is an extremely esthetic replacement tooth that is tough and long lasting.
The average treatment time from start to finish lasts about two hours, and you will walk out the door with your permanent dental crown. By eliminating the middle man, a third-party dental lab, we achieve better results and affordability on your behalf.
If you have a damaged tooth or suspect you need a dental crown, contact Dr Paul Rashid DMD to schedule an appointment with one of our experienced dentists. We look forward to hearing from you!
