A crown replaces the outer part of a tooth, and that is why it is also called the \u201ccap.\u201d Crowns are custom-made; they are designed to complement as well as improve the shape of the damaged tooth.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The crown is permanently cemented so it is unlike dentures that can be removed as you wish. If you think crowns would easily break, they won\u2019t as they are made of durable kinds of materials. They can be made of ceramics, porcelain-and-metal, gold, or resin. Here at Roseville Dental Center, our crowns are made of high- quality porcelain.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crowns fit over the top of the tooth, protecting what\u2019s inside it. And they are designed for it to be able to function just like your natural tooth.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><br>How are Crowns Fitted?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The procedure is nothing to be afraid. Our qualified dentist will need to numb the affected tooth by applying anesthetic to it and as well as to the surrounding gums. With the anesthetic at work, you won\u2019t feel pain during the procedure.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, the crown or surface of your existing tooth will need to be removed by the use of dental drilling tools and abrasive bur.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An impression of your tooth will be made, which will be used to create the structure or shape of the replacement crown. It may take time for the crown to be created, and a second visit may be necessary.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the crown is available, the dentist will then affix the crown using special cement. The cement we use is safe for dental use. It will firmly bond the crown to the existing tooth. After that, it would be ready to function just like your natural tooth.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You see, getting a dental crown is very straightforward and is something that will be very rewarding. What\u2019s more is that you\u2019ll be able to avoid your damaged tooth from getting severe dental problems.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><br>If you think you need a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosevilledentalcenter.com\/services\/general-dentistry\/crowns-bridges.php\">Dental Crown in Roseville, CA<\/a>, our dental team here at Roseville Dental Center is here for you!
