A crown is a type of artificial tooth that completely surrounds a tooth or dental implant. Whether your tooth is badly decayed, decayed, discolored, crooked, or is undergoing major repairs, crowns are the treatment of choice. Unlike laminate porcelain, crowns completely cover the teeth and allow for more effective tooth alignment. It is more durable than other types of restorations, such as crowns, laminate porcelain and composite restorations. Some patients have used veneers for more than 15 years.
What is a Dental Crown?
Dental crown is a treatment method used in dentistry. In cases where teeth are damaged due to decay, breakage or other reasons, it is coated on the tooth and provides a protective layer. In dental medicine, this coating process is called “restoration”. With advances in dental medicine, teeth can be reconstructed as closely as possible to their natural appearance. A dental crown is usually made of durable materials such as porcelain or ceramic and is custom-made to match the color, shape and size of the tooth. In this way, it is possible to restore the natural appearance and functionality of the tooth, both aesthetically and functionally. Dental crown application is an effective option to improve the patient’s oral health and smile aesthetics. However, it is important to act in accordance with the dentist’s recommendations when determining the most appropriate treatment plan for each patient.
How to Apply a Dental Crown?
Dental crown application is an effective treatment method used by dentists to solve various dental problems. This treatment usually consists of several steps. First, the patient’s teeth are examined in detail and it is determined which teeth need treatment. Then, the patient’s expectations and treatment options are discussed with the dentist. Information is given about the details and results of the treatment. In the second step, the dentist cleans the damage to the tooth and corrects the shape of the tooth when necessary. Then, measurements of the tooth are taken and a specially prepared dental crown is produced in the laboratory according to these measurements. In the final stage, the dentist places the produced dental crown on the patient’s tooth and fixes it appropriately. At the end of this process, the patient gets a healthy smile with a natural appearance and functionality.
