Porcelain Crowns Ocoee FL


Crafted from a durable ceramic material, porcelain crowns have emerged as a popular method of effectively restoring damaged teeth, considered often as a go-to solution by many in the dental community.

As a patient seeking the path to dental strength and aesthetic brilliance, you may find it imperative to explore the benefits and drawbacks inherent to the utilization of such restorative procedures.

There is no reason to suffer any longer with a damaged or decayed tooth.

what is a dental crown?


A dental crown is a cap that is placed over a damaged tooth. The main goal of crowns is to protect and restore the natural appearance of your teeth.

Porcelain crowns are aesthetically pleasing because they look like real teeth. They are suitable for people who have teeth that have experienced an injury or trauma, and those who have dental decay.

People who want to improve their smile by reshaping a crooked tooth should consider crowns. Crowns can also be used to safeguard your teeth after a root canal procedure or to replace a missing filling.

Visit Classic Smiles in Ocoee to get more details about porcelain crowns and find out if they are right for you.

benefits of porcelain for your crown


Porcelain crowns are custom-fitted tooth prosthetics that are used to replace or strengthen a damaged tooth. Our dentist may recommend a porcelain crown for several reasons:

•  Reinforce a tooth that is fractured or severely damaged by decay
•  Anchor a tooth that is too weak to hold a large filling
•  Hold together parts of a cracked tooth
•  Enhance the physical appearance of a tooth

"Aesthetically pleasing and functionally effective, porcelain crowns have revolutionized restorative dentistry, offering a perfect blend of durability and optical properties similar to natural teeth," says Dr. Arianne Vega, a prominent dentist and dental educator.

Natural Appearance


Porcelain crowns offer a natural appearance that closely mimics the translucency and luster of real teeth. This makes them an excellent choice for those seeking to enhance their smile without compromising their natural look.

Durability


Porcelain crowns are highly durable and can last for many years with proper care. They are resistant to chipping, cracking, and staining, making them a long-lasting solution for damaged or decayed teeth.

Biocompatible


Another benefit of porcelain crowns is their compatibility with the body. They are made from biocompatible materials, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or other adverse responses.

Restore Tooth Functionality


Porcelain crowns can also help to restore the functionality of a tooth. They provide a strong, sturdy cover for a damaged tooth, allowing for normal eating and speaking activities.

Protect Against Further Damage


Porcelain crowns can also help to protect a tooth from further damage or decay. By covering the entire tooth, they provide a barrier against bacteria and other harmful substances.

Finally, porcelain crowns can be used to correct a variety of dental issues. They can be used to cover discolored or misshapen teeth, to support a tooth with a large filling, or to hold a dental bridge in place.

Are There Any Downsides to Porcelain Crowns?


However, as with any medical procedure, you must be aware of not just the advantages, but also the potential drawbacks.

While porcelain crowns can undoubtedly restore the function and form of your teeth, they require rigorous maintenance to prevent potential issues, such as sensitivity and discomfort among others.

Please confer with our dental staff to better understand your particular needs and ensure that a porcelain crown is the ideal solution for you.

What is the Procedure for Getting a Porcelain Crown?


Two dentist appointments are required for the porcelain crown treatment.

Your dentist will prepare your tooth for crown placement during the initial visit. Examining your teeth to detect and remove all sensitive portions is part of the preparation.

The dentist will use X-rays to examine the tooth's roots and surrounding bone before placing the crown. If you have an infection risk, significant tooth decay, or injured pulp, your dentist may recommend root canal therapy.

The dentist will numb the gum tissues surrounding the impacted tooth. They will then take impressions of your teeth and send them to the dental laboratory for crown manufacturing.

The crown can take up to three weeks to be made; however, in the meantime, the dentist will create a temporary crown to protect the affected tooth.

The dentist will extract the temporary crown during your second visit with us. The doctor will examine the permanent crown to determine if it blends in with your tooth color and if it correctly fits over the void area.

If all looks good, your dentist will apply a local anesthetic to the damaged tooth and permanently cement the new crown.

Does a Crowned Tooth Require Special Treatment?


Crowned teeth do not require any extra attention. However, you must safeguard the underlying tooth against decay and gum disease.

Maintain good dental hygiene by brushing twice a day and flossing every day. Don't chew or eat hard foods, as this will prevent your porcelain crowns from cracking.

With adequate care and maintenance, a porcelain crown could last for up to 15 years.
