Dental Crowns In Owings Mills
Don’t let damage or decay stop you from having the beautiful, functional smile you deserve. A natural-looking, durable dental crown can restore both the health and appearance of your tooth.
Why should I choose dental crowns?
Dental crowns are a versatile solution for both restorative and cosmetic needs. They’re the go-to treatment for those with damaged, broken, or severely decayed teeth. After clearing away the damage and shaping the tooth into a strong base, a crown is placed over it. These custom-made, tooth-shaped caps protect your natural tooth down to the gum line, preserving your smile’s look, feel, and functionality. Crowns are also frequently used after root canal therapy or to complete a dental implant procedure.

The Dental Crown Treatment Process
Preparing The Tooth
To begin, your dentist will thoroughly clean your mouth and apply local anesthesia for your comfort. Next, the decayed enamel will be carefully removed with a dental drill. This step also involves reshaping your tooth to create a strong foundation for the dental crown.
Imaging & Temporary Crown Placement
The creation of your custom crown starts with capturing impressions of your teeth. For a natural fit, we’ll also take detailed images of your teeth for precise matching. Your impressions are then sent to a dental lab, where your crown will be expertly crafted using durable materials. In the meantime, your dentist will place a temporary crown to protect your reshaped tooth until your permanent crown is ready.
Final Fit & Finish
Once your permanent crown is complete, we’ll schedule your final fitting. During this appointment, our team will thoroughly check the crown’s fit and comfort, making any necessary adjustments. Once everything feels right, your dentist will securely bond the crown in place with a strong dental adhesive, completing the process.
