Sacramento Area Dental Crowns

Major injury to a tooth can be a real pain. Your may find tooth pain or jaw pain happens quite frequently if a tooth has been seriously chipped, cracked, or decayed. In addition to heightened tooth sensitivity, your ability to eat certain foods will be impaired and your smile just won’t look as good as it used to. It’s for these reasons that we offer dental crowns at our Sacramento area cosmetic dentistry office.

What are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns are caps that are placed right over the damaged or severely decayed tooth. Dental crowns help protect a tooth from further damage, greatly reduce if not eliminate pain or tooth sensitivity, and provide an aesthetically appealing appearance.

What Dental Problems Can Dental Crowns Address?

Dental crowns are great for fixing major tooth damage. This includes chipped teeth, cracked teeth, and severe tooth decay. Dental crowns are also used to cap dental implants if a patient is missing a tooth or several teeth.

How are Dental Crowns Placed?

The dental crowns process at our Sacramento area cosmetic dentistry office will involve multiple steps. The first is to remove any severely damaged or decayed structure of a tooth. This will ensure that only sturdy tooth material remains to support the dental crown. Once this is done, an impression will be taken of the remaining tooth structure so that the dental crown can be custom-created to best cap the tooth. A temporary crown will be placed at the end of the first visit. During your next visit, the temporary dental crown will be removed and the custom-fabricated permanent dental crown will be placed.

Are Dental Crowns Right for Me?

The best way to find out if dental crowns are right for you is to visit our Sacramento area cosmetic dentistry office for a consultation with Dr. Randy Davey. During your consultation, Dr. Davey will determine if dental crowns or another cosmetic dentistry option such as tooth bonding or porcelain veneers will be best to address your needs. If you think that the cost of dental crowns will pose a financial burden, we’ll be happy to go over various financing options and payment plans for dental crowns.
