A dental crown or tooth crown is like a cap for the tooth. It is shaped exactly like the tooth. Now, you must be wondering why this cap is used. Well, the main purpose of the crown is to restore the original shape of the tooth and give it some strength along with improving its appearance. So, the crown basically acts as a tooth cap that is completely or partially damaged.
Now that you know what a crown is, you must also know when a crown is recommended by a dentist.
Before putting the crown to its position, there are a lot of other steps that needs to be done to ensure that the crown sits perfectly in position. Firstly, you will be administered with a local anesthetic. To ensure that the crown fits perfectly and finds room for itself, the dentist files the original tooth that is being restored. Then to get a custom made fit, an impression is taken of the tooth to be restored and the surrounding teeth from which a temporary crown is made. Then using restorative material and with the help of the impression, the crown is made. The main aim of the temporary crown is to protect the damaged tooth until you get the permanent crown. Because of this temporary crown, the final crown will fit you exactly and will appear as a tailor-made fit only for you. However, the temporary and final crown are not alike in color and the final crown is way better than the former one. When you will visit the dentist for the next time, your temporary crown will be taken off and you will be given the permanent crown. After checking whether the crown is in place or not, the dentist will cement it into place.
