Life Like Crowns

life-like crowns

 Do you need a teeth makeover? Cavities create urgent problems for teeth, and should be dealt with as soon as possible. With prompt care, it is possible to minimize the damage caused by decay. Unfortunately, many people will not realize they have a problem until they need more substantial care. While dental crowns are effective against more advanced decay, you might not realize that other oral health concerns can call for their placement, too. Tooth damage may demand restorative support from a crown, as can wear and tear. If your smile is negatively impacted by a tooth in poor condition, your dentist can offer life like crowns. Cosmetic dental treatment can be both durable and very attractive.

Do all cosmetic dentists have the artistic expertise to do life like crowns?

Beautiful work is hard to come by. This is especially true when it is complex. Digital smile design is only done by experienced cosmetic dentists. Many general and cosmetic dentists will claim know-how but only do a couple of small cases a year. There are many other criteria upon which you can evaluate a dentist. Be careful when choosing the cheapest option. A sophisticated dental makeover delivered with high aesthetic standards is like fine artwork. Custom designs require more skill and more time from the dentist and the dental lab to create. Cosmetic dental procedures done at this level will be more expensive than that done by an average general dentist.

We will work with you to find the best treatment options within your budget. Financing options are available.

What’s Causing Discomfort or Concern?

When was the last time you sat down to enjoy a meal, without worrying about your teeth? More particularly, hoping pain wouldn’t ruin the experience? If you have suffered trauma to a tooth, and been left with noticeable damage as a result, you may even avoid smiling, because you don’t want people to see your smile’s imperfections. Fortunately, modern esthetic restorative dentistry makes it possible to address most causes of concern with beautiful and comfortable results, so you can get back to smiling and dining, confidently, soon!

The first step in devising any dental treatment plan, whether restorative or cosmetic in nature, is simply determining the extent of the problem. In the case of decay and other damage, or after a trauma that could have left a tooth intrinsically damaged, the dentist will generally use a dental x-ray to determine the extent of the damage. A restorative option can then be chosen accordingly.

In the case of many dental issues, including deep cavities, chips and cracks, porcelain crowns are a popular restorative option!

What Kind Of Problems Can Life Like Crowns Correct?

A tooth crown is used when a tooth breaks down because of a cavity, injury, or gradual wear and tear. They can also be placed on a dental implant. These restorations also help when patients need to do something about congenitally weak or small teeth. Once placed, they can protect you from future issues, and they can offer the necessary strength to absorb biting and chewing pressures. Leaving a dental problem unaddressed can put your tooth at risk of being lost, and it can impact your ability to properly bite and chew. Negatively impacted dental function can lead to TMJ problems.

Porcelain is actually a versatile crown material option for treatment. It is durable and natural-looking. For instance, porcelain can be shaded and crafted to sit flush within the smile, creating a restoration that is not easily spotted. Since porcelain conducts less heat than metal, many find porcelain crowns more comfortable than metal crowns, as well.

Plus, since a crown is a stain resistant and long-lasting form of restoration, not only can crowns be used to protect fragile or damaged teeth, but they can also be used to help address tooth loss. Whether you choose a full crown to replace a single lost tooth, or a tooth bridge to complete the smile, crowns will likely be used to help create a comfortable, and life like restoration!

Making Changes To Your Appearance, And Your Oral Health, With Oral Care

If you are concerned about the state of your smile, get another opinion for your dental plan. This review from your dentist can identify what might be wrong and what should be done to address the matter. Dental crowns offer great support because they can last for years, they can improve dental function, and they can certainly improve your smile.

There are many cost factors that determine why crowns are so expensive. Quality and cost are measured by longevity and how well it replicates the former tooth it replaced.

How Can a Lifelike Crown Help You Smile Again?

A cap can help to protect a damaged tooth against further wear. It also protects from further exposure to cavity producing bacteria by creating a tight seal. It can do it so beautifully! That’s because modern porcelain veneers and crowns can be made of dental-grade porcelain. This tooth colored ceramic is incredibly customizable and actually quite similar to natural tooth enamel. This allows for seamless dental restorations, which can last for more than a decade with proper care.
