20 Sep Dental Crown in One Visit
What is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a fixed prosthetic device that is permanently attached to an existing tooth or implant. It is used to cover or “cap” a damaged tooth. In addition, a crown can strengthen the integrity of a damaged tooth and improve its appearance, alignment, and functionality.
Reasons for a Dental Crown
Dr. Retrum may recommend a crown to:
- replace a large filling where there is not enough tooth remaining.
- protect a weak tooth from fracturing or to restore a fractured tooth.
- attach a bridge.
- cover a dental implant.
- cover a discolored or poorly shaped tooth.
- cover a tooth that has had a root canal treatment.
CEREC: Leading Dental Restoration Technology
At Integrity Dentistry we strive to offer you the latest in advanced dental care options. One of these incredible capabilities is CEREC. CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) uses computer technology to digitally scan your damaged tooth and surrounding area, and create a 3D rendering. Dr. Retrum uses this 3D model to intricately and accurately design a restoration.
With the 3D rendering and a color match to your natural teeth, Dr. Retrum fabricates the crown on-site. Once completed, it is seated in your mouth- all in one visit! That’s an all-ceramic restoration in a single appointment without compromising aesthetics or precision.
