Reasons You May Need a Dental Crown

At A-1 Perfect Smiles of Clifton, we recommend dental crowns for many restorative and cosmetic treatments. If you or your loved one has a cracked or broken tooth, then the enamel no longer protects the inner tooth. This exposes the soft tissue containing sensitive blood vessels and nerves to damage and infection. As a result, chewing or drinking cold or hot drinks can be very painful. Sometimes the pain becomes so severe that it's considered a dental emergency. Crowns are a highly versatile solution to protect and restore cracked or broken teeth. Besides restoring decayed teeth, dental crowns can also enhance the appearance of your teeth.

At A-1 Perfect Smiles of Clifton, we use dental crowns to address various dental issues, including:

• Supporting a tooth: Crowns are effective at replacing missing parts of the tooth and strengthening teeth with large fillings.
• Protecting a weak tooth: If you have a cracked, broken, or decayed tooth, a crown will protect its entire structure from further damage.
• Dental bridge support: We can use dental crowns to hold a dental bridge in position by anchoring the restoration to adjacent teeth on either side.
• Replacing a missing tooth: If you have a missing tooth, we can use a crown coupled with an implant to replace it.
• Cosmetic enhancement: Porcelain crowns have a whiter, tooth-like appearance that gives you a more beautiful smile. They also transform misshapen and stained teeth.
• Saving baby teeth: Children can benefit from crowns too. We can use a crown to save a decaying tooth, prevent teeth from shifting, and protect worn or decayed teeth from further damage. This helps to set the right foundation for emerging adult teeth.

Clifton Dental Crowns After Root Canal Therapy

We can also place a crown on a tooth that has had a root canal treatment to provide adequate support for the tooth. In this instance, a crown offers much better support than a filling. It also protects against reinfection. Sometimes, it may be necessary to perform root canal therapy on a tooth that was already fitted with a dental crown. Our dentist has the skills, experience, and equipment to remove the existing crown, conduct root canal therapy, and crown it back with a new porcelain restoration.

Using Crowns to Address Dental Emergencies

Your teeth contain sensitive pulp, which consists of blood vessels and nerves that severe damage or decay can aggravate. Dental issues can directly impact your quality of life and force you to seek immediate treatment. At A-1 Perfect Smiles of Clifton, we are passionate about addressing your pressing dental needs with same-day appointments whenever possible. If you or a loved one is dealing with a dental emergency, call our office to find out when you can come in to get the relief you need. Our dental team offers emergency appointments during office hours as well as after-hours.

Implant-Supported Restorations

Implant-supported crowns are designed to replace missing teeth with a new restoration that will look and feel natural. They also encourage jawbone preservation in the area where the tooth is missing. We offer implant-supported crowns to replace an entire tooth from root to crown. The crown is supported by a dental implant, a titanium post surgically anchored in your jawbone to provide stability to your prosthetic tooth.

Our dentist often recommends dental implants as they provide a strong, solid foundation for custom crowns. This restoration helps to counteract bone degeneration and promote jawbone density. While you may need to replace your crowns in the future, implants are designed to last a lifetime.
