Dental Crowns What to Expect

Comprehensive Exam – Dr. Silverman will first perform a comprehensive consultation and assessment at his Owings Mills, VA dentist office to determine if dental crowns are right for you. He will examine the teeth, gums, mouth, and jaw joints to diagnose your condition. After that, Dr. Silverman will prepare an individualized treatment plan that addresses the health concerns as well as the cosmetic goals.

Preparation of Teeth – Next, Dr. Silverman will prepare the tooth for the dental crown. Old fillings or old crowns will be removed to create a solid foundation for the dental crown. Impressions will be taken of the tooth that is receiving the dental crown as well as the neighboring teeth to ensure proper fit and placement.

Temporary Dental Crown – In most cases, Dr. Silverman will use a temporary tooth crown to provide protection. The temporary tooth cap will be placed on the tooth while the final restoration is being fabricated at the dental laboratory.

Final Placement of Dental Crown – The last step is the final placement of the dental crown. Dr. Silverman will try on the dental crown to ensure a proper fit. Once both you and he are satisfied, the dental crown will be permanently bonded to the tooth and gently polished.
