Dental Crowns Morrow, GA

A damaged or worn-down tooth can be protected and strengthened by a high-quality dental crown. Sometimes called a cap, dental crowns are made custom to fit over your tooth while matching the shade of your natural teeth for a natural appearance. MINT dentistry offers dental crowns to protect a weak tooth, treat a large cavity, restore cracked teeth, and cover discolored teeth. We use high-grade porcelain crowns that look natural and improve your overall smile. MINT dentistry patients have the most radiant smiles in Morrow, GA. Schedule an appointment at our state-of-the-art practice to find out more about how a custom crown can restore your smile and oral health.

There are a number of scenarios in which a custom crown can help. They can be used to prevent a tooth from breaking when it is weakened by decay or to hold parts of a tooth together that have already cracked. Crowns can be used to improve a tooth that is damaged or stained, cover a tooth that is oddly shaped, or cover root canal-treated teeth. Our Morrow, GA dental experts also place crowns to treat larger areas of tooth decay, serve as part of a bridge, and complete the dental implant process to replace missing teeth. At MINT dentistry, our dental crowns are made with high-quality materials and set using advanced technology to help ensure a long-lasting result that looks natural and attractive.

To begin your appointment, you will be invited to relax in a luxurious treatment chair and given a pair of stylish MINT sunglasses and Beats headphones. Next, the area to be treated will be prepped with local anesthesia. Other sedation methods may be available to help you feel more comfortable during the procedure if you have any fears or anxieties. When you are ready, your MINT dentist will prep the tooth by eliminating any decay and reduce the enamel structure so the crown fits snugly. Our team will then take digital impressions of the treatment area (or a previously placed dental implant) that will be used to make your custom crown. A temporary crown will be used to protect your tooth until your custom crown is ready. Once your crown is ready, we will contact you to schedule an appointment for placement. The restoration will be attached to your dental implant or cemented to your natural tooth. After the crown is set in place, your dentist will adjust the fit so your bite is correct.

Provided you have only been under local anesthesia, you should be able to return to your regular routine following your procedure. We will go over the best way to care for your crown, including what foods you shouldn't eat and how to properly clean it. In some cases, our team might suggest you come back for a follow-up visit to have your bite checked after getting a crown to ensure the alignment is comfortable. During your oral health exam at MINT dentistry in Morrow, GA, your dentist will check your restoration and make sure it remains comfortable. Your dentist will talk to you about when your crown needs to be replaced; however, with proper care, a restoration can last for many years. If you experience any concerns about your crown (e.g., it feels loose or gets knocked out), contact us right away. Don't attempt to put it back in or repair it because this may cause bigger problems, such as an infection or discomfort.

Some dental insurance plans may cover part of the cost of a crown. Once we have contacted your insurance company, our office can better estimate your out-of-pocket expenses. During your consultation, our practitioners can help you determine the best material for your crown to fit your budget. A member of our staff will also discuss payment options, including the MINT Discount Plan, to make your treatment more affordable. MINT dentistry in Morrow, GA is committed to helping each of our patients get an attractive smile. Our custom crowns are made with the highest quality materials so they last a long time and look beautiful.
