DENTAL CROWNS IN WAUKEGAN

We at Megan N Gray DDS provide different type of dental crowns to patients in Waukegan. A dental crown is a "cap" that is placed over a tooth, to restore its shape and size, strength, and improve its appearance that might be impacted by decay or other dental problems. Dental crowns are a type of dental restoration that help restore and protect your smile and also provide it with additional support. We offer Ceramic, Zirconia, Porcelain and Porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns. Dental crowns are needed when the teeth have deep cavities, are heavily decayed, cracked tooth, to protect teeth after root-canal treatment, to support bridges, etc.

The process from dentist recommending a dental crown, creating a mold of your tooth to fabricating the crown in our dental lab, takes around one week. After which, our dentist would place the crown onto the tooth, putting it to full health and function. A temporary crown is fitted while waiting for the final crown to be made. During the crown placement process, the tooth is numbed by local anesthesia to ease the pain. After the procedure, the patient may feel sensitivity or some soreness in the gums. Although it would be minimal and wouldn't last long. Crown placement is also a final step in root canal treatment.
