When it comes to restoring the function and appearance of damaged or decayed teeth, dental crowns are a popular and effective treatment option. Available at Dental Wellness of Camby, dental crowns are tooth-shaped "caps" that are placed over a tooth to cover it, restoring its shape and functional structure, with the added effect of improving its appearance. Dr. Robin Singh Warainch, an experienced and dedicated dentist, uses the latest techniques and materials to ensure the dental crown not only fits perfectly but also matches the natural color of your teeth.

Why Should I Get Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns serve both functional and aesthetic purposes. If you have a tooth that's severely damaged, decayed, or discolored, a dental crown can restore its strength, shape, and appearance. Crowns protect weak teeth from breaking and hold together parts of a cracked tooth. They can also cover and support a tooth with a large filling when there isn't much tooth left. Additionally, dental crowns can hold a dental bridge in place or cover a dental implant, making them a versatile solution for various dental issues.

The Benefits Of Dental Crowns
Improved Oral Health
Dental crowns provide a protective shield for vulnerable teeth, preventing further damage or decay. By covering a weak or damaged tooth, a crown can help you avoid more complex dental procedures in the future.
Enhanced Appearance
A discolored or misshapen tooth can impact your smile and confidence. Dental crowns are designed to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, enhancing your smile and boosting your self-esteem.
Restored Function
A damaged tooth can make eating and speaking difficult. Dental crowns restore the function of your teeth, allowing you to eat your favorite foods and speak clearly without discomfort or difficulty.
The Dental Crowns Treatment Process
Examination and Preparation
First, Dr. Warainch will examine the tooth to determine if it can support a crown. If the tooth is severely damaged or decayed, it may need to be filled or "built up" to support the crown. Then, the tooth and the surrounding area will be numbed, and the tooth will be reshaped to accommodate the crown.
Impressions and Temporary Crown
Next, impressions of the tooth will be taken. These impressions are sent to a dental lab where your custom crown will be created. While waiting for your permanent crown, a temporary one will be placed by your Camby dentist to protect the prepared tooth.
Placement of the Permanent Crown
Once your dental crown is ready, Dr. Warainch will remove the temporary crown and carefully fit and adjust the permanent one before cementing it into place. This final step ensures the crown fits comfortably and matches your other teeth. With your new dental crown, you can enjoy a healthy, functional, and beautiful smile once again.
