Dental Crown Placement

Our doctors at Bridge Smile Dental Group P.A. may suggest a dental crown for a variety of reasons. If a patient has a tooth that is weak and needs to be protected from decay or one that is severely worn down and needs to be restored, a dental crown will be necessary. The procedure for installing a crown usually takes two separate visits to the office and we’d like you to know what to expect during the process.


A dental crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over the tooth to cover it and help restore the tooth to help restore it to its natural shape and size. In addition to making the tooth stronger and improving its appearance, a dental crown can assist in improving the alignment of your bite. Once the type of material has been chosen for the dental crown, preparing for the procedure itself will typically require two visits. The first visit involves examining and preparing the tooth, while the second visit includes placement of the permanent crown.


If you have questions or concerns about dental crowns, please give us a call. To learn more about the services we provide at our office, visit www.bridgesmilesdental.com for more information.
