Dental Crown FAQs
What is a dental crown?
A crown is a custom restoration that covers a tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance. It may be recommended for a damaged or weakened tooth.
Will my crown look natural?
Your crown is designed to complement your surrounding teeth. Dr. Castro checks its color, shape, fit, and bite before securing it in place.
Can my crown be completed in one visit?
Some teeth are suitable for a same-day crown made in our office. Others may benefit from a laboratory-made crown requiring additional visits. Dr. Castro will explain the best option for your needs.
How long will my crown last?
Crowns can provide many years of service. Their lifespan depends on oral hygiene, the condition of the supporting tooth, bite forces, and habits such as grinding or clenching.
How do I care for my crown?
Brush twice daily, floss around the crown, and visit us regularly for dental exams and cleanings. Avoid chewing ice or hard objects. If you grind your teeth, Dr. Castro may recommend a protective night guard.
