What are Dental Crowns?

A crown is a custom-made cap that fits over a damaged or decayed tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns cover the entire tooth, protecting and restoring its original shape and size. Crowns are used to protect weak teeth, cover implants, and improve the overall look of your smile. At Maple Park Dental Care we offer crowns made from high-quality ceramic that matches your natural teeth.

Crowns are a key part of restorative dentistry, a barrier against further damage and to make sure your teeth function properly. With our CEREC technology, we can create precise, durable, and natural-looking crowns in one day so you can have a beautiful smile without the wait.

The Unique Advantage of CEREC Same-Day Crowns

At Maple Park Dental Care we use CEREC technology, which stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. This system allows us to design, mill, and place your crown in one visit. Here’s how our same-day crowns are different:

• Immediate Results: Traditional crowns require multiple visits and a waiting period for the lab to make your crown. With CEREC we make your crown in-house so you get a quick and easy solution.
• Precision and Customization: CEREC uses digital scanning and 3D modeling to design a crown that fits with your existing teeth, for a comfortable and natural look.
• No Temporary Crowns: No more temporary crowns. With our same-day service, you leave our office with your permanent crown already in.
• Durability and Aesthetics: CEREC crowns are made from high-quality ceramic, known for their strength and ability to mimic the natural translucency of teeth.

Benefits of Dental Crowns

Choosing dental crowns at Maple Park Dental Care has many advantages:

• Protection and Strength: Crowns protect weak teeth from further damage, shield, and preserve the tooth.
• Enhanced Aesthetics: Our crowns are custom matched to your natural tooth color, to enhance your smile with a natural look.
• Durability: CEREC crowns are made from strong materials that can last for years with proper care, a cost-effective long-term solution.
• Improved Functionality: Crowns restore the ability to chew and speak properly, promoting overall oral health.
• Versatility: Crowns can be used for many dental issues from a root canal-treated tooth to replacing a missing tooth with an implant.
• Comfort and Fit: Our digital scanning ensures a comfortable fit, your crown will feel like a part of your mouth.

Proper crown aftercare is important to maintain the life of your crown. This includes regular brushing, flossing, and avoiding bad habits. Avoid clenching your jaw to prevent damage to the crown. Also, avoid grinding your teeth to keep the crown intact and functional.

CEREC Dental Crown Procedure at Maple Park Dental Care

Getting your CEREC crown at Maple Park Dental Care is a simple process. Our team will follow the American Dental Association guidelines to ensure each step is done with precision and care.

1. Consultation: Your first visit is an examination and digital imaging to assess the tooth and determine if a crown is needed. In some cases, a root canal may be necessary before the crown to remove the diseased pulp tissue and prevent further damage. We will discuss your treatment options and answer any questions you may have. We want to make sure you understand the benefits of a crown.
2. Preparation: Once we determine a crown is needed we reshape the tooth by removing a small amount of enamel to make room for the crown. Local anesthesia is used to keep you comfortable. We also make sure the tooth is clean and free of decay or old fillings.
3. Digital Impressions: Instead of impressions we use a digital scanner to capture 3D images of your prepared tooth. This quick and comfortable process gives us the data we need to design your crown. The digital impressions are instant so we can get started right away.
4. Crown Design and Milling: We design your custom crown using CEREC’s CAD/CAM technology based on digital impressions, ensuring a perfect fit and natural look. The design is sent to our in-office milling machine which mills the crown from a block of high-quality ceramic in about an hour. No need for temporary crowns or multiple appointments.
5. Fitting and Placement: We check the fit and appearance of the new crown, and make any adjustments as needed to ensure comfort and proper bite. Once happy we bond the crown to your tooth with strong dental cement and you’ll leave the office with a fully restored smile and can use your new crown right away.
