Preserve Your Teeth with Dental Crowns
2
Dr. Ala Din uses dental crowns for both cosmetic
and restorative purposes. When used as a form of
restorative dentistry, the goal of dental crowns
is to save the tooth and avoid extraction, dental
implants, or dentures.
3
Several situations may warrant the placement of a
dental crown, with the following being the most
common One or several of your teeth are
severely stained or discolored. Although Dr. Din
offers professional teeth whitening services,
4
it may not be enough to remove extensive damage.
A dental crown conceals the problem while
improving the appearance of your smile at the
same time. When you are missing a single tooth
or several consecutive teeth,
5
Dr. Din attaches a dental bridge to each of the
adjacent teeth to hold it in place. He then
affixes the replacement teeth to the bridge. If
the surrounding teeth are not strong enough to
support a dental bridge, he places a crown on
them first.
6
If you require a root canal to treat an
infected tooth, Dr. Din places a dental crown
over it at the completion of the procedure to
protect it from further decay and infection.
7
Minor misalignment of the teeth can be
corrected with dental crowns rather than going
through lengthy orthodontic treatment. Dental
crowns can also conceal chips and cracks in the
teeth.
8
The Process of Receiving Dental CrownsBefore Dr.
Din can place your new crown, he may need to
remove up to two millimeters of tooth enamel
first. This is to ensure that the crown fits
snugly on the surface of your tooth and remains
there permanently.
9
Dental crowns completely cover the surface of a
tooth that is visible above the gum line. During
your first appointment, Dr. Din takes an
impression and sends the results to our
laboratory.
10
He also inspects the tooth again to make sure
that it is strong enough to have a crown placed
on it.After our laboratory creates your dental
crown, you need to come in for a second
appointment and final fitting. Dr. Din cements
the new crown in
11
place by using a special dental laser. His staff
then provides you with instructions on how to
care for your newly placed crown. Good oral
hygiene and regular check-ups are essential to
increase the longevity of this dental
restoration.http//aladindds.com/
