Dental crowns are an effective and durable solution for repairing damaged or weakened teeth. Dr. Akshay Dhall specializes in crafting custom dental crowns in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to restore your teeth’s function and enhance the appearance of your smile. With advanced techniques and high-quality materials, our goal is to provide long-lasting results that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
What to Expect from a Dental Crown Procedure
A dental crown is a custom-made “cap” placed over a tooth that is decayed, cracked or weakened due to a previous procedure, such as a root canal. Crowns protect the tooth while restoring its appearance and strength.
The process involves the following steps:
- Tooth Preparation: The damaged tooth is reshaped to accommodate the crown.
- Impressions: We take precise molds of the tooth to create your custom crown.
- Temporary Crown: A temporary crown is placed while the permanent one is being crafted.
- Permanent Crown Placement: Once ready, the custom crown is carefully bonded to the tooth, completing the restoration.
Our dentist and team take pride in ensuring that every crown fits comfortably and looks natural, allowing patients to enjoy the benefits of a fully functional and beautiful smile.
ÂAdvantages of Dental Crowns
