What Is a Dental Crown?

Essentially, a dental crown is like a protective cap that will be fitted over your damaged tooth. Unlike a filling, which “fills” a dental hole caused by decay or physical stress, a crown covers your entire tooth. This design makes them well suited for providing severely broken pearly whites some much-needed structural support. 

The Process of Getting a Dental Crown

We have two options for dental crown treatment in Mineola. The first is more traditional, and involves:

  • Reviewing your oral health history
  • Taking impressions of your mouth
  • Requesting a customized crown from a fabrication lab
  • Providing you with a temporary crown
  • Seeing you for a second appointment to place your permanent crown

If you would rather receive your permanent crown on the same day as your initial appointment, we can arrange for that with CEREC technology. This method will look more like this:

  • Reviewing your oral health history
  • Taking impressions of your mouth
  • Fabricating your customized, permanent crown in-office
  • Placing your permanent crown

For more details on either option, don’t hesitate to contact our friendly team!
