No need to worry &#8212; it\u2019s a common restorative procedure. As your family dentist in Lisle, \u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arbordentalcare.com\/meet-dr-frank.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Frank Marchese<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arbordentalcare.com\/meet-dr-nellie.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Jeanelle Marchese<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> may recommend a crown for a weak, worn, decayed, or otherwise damaged tooth. Many people have at least one dental crown. But if you\u2019ve just been told you need a \u201ccap\u201d (what we also call crowns), you probably have some questions. Keep reading to learn more about this common procedure from the team at Arbor Dental Care!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Q: Why do I need a dental crown?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A: Your dentist may recommend a dental crown for a number of reasons. Some of the most common uses for a crown include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Holding together a broken tooth<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Restoring the strength of a tooth that\u2019s been worn down due to teeth grinding<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Restoring a significantly decayed tooth<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Making cosmetic improvements to severely damaged teeth<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Q: Does a dental crown replace my tooth?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A: Not always. Dental crowns can take the place of a single missing tooth when supported by a dental implant, but they also restore or enhance the strength, health, and appearance of damaged but salvageable teeth located anywhere in the smile. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Q: What are crowns made out of?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A: Dental crowns can be made out of a variety of materials, including porcelain\/ceramic, metal alloys, gold, and zirconia. The one that is right for your smile depends on the location of the tooth, your budget, and your personal preference. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Q: How long does it take to get a crown?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A: If you need a dental crown, you can expect the treatment to be carried out over two appointments to Arbor Dental Care. The first one is reserved for treatment planning and the placement of a temporary crown. You will wear the temporary while the permanent restoration is crafted in a separate lab. One to two weeks later, the permanent crown is ready. You return to our office for any necessary adjustments and its final placement onto the tooth. In all, the process for a dental crown takes about two weeks. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Q: Does it hurt to get a crown?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A: Nope! At Arbor Dental Care, we offer comfortable care with anesthesia and an expert approach. So no matter whether you\u2019re getting a crown, filling, veneer, or any other restorative treatment, you will feel calm, relaxed, and at-ease when you\u2019re under our care. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Q: How long do crowns last?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A: Dental crowns can last for many years with proper maintenance and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arbordentalcare.com\/restorative-dentistry.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">oral hygiene<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Brush and floss your teeth regularly and visit our office as recommended to ensure your restoration stays healthy and sturdy. When you brush and floss, make sure to concentrate on the area at the base of the crown to prevent the plaque and tartar buildup that causes cavities and gum disease. Notify your dentist right away if your crown loosens or breaks. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Q: Does my Lisle dentist perform crowns?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A: Yes! If you have a significantly damaged or decayed tooth or know you need a dental crown, don\u2019t hesitate to get in touch with your dentist at Arbor Dental Care. We perform expert restorative care from the comfort of our state-of-the-art office.
