Dental crowns are quite popular because they can restore a tooth to its original size, color and shape. Dental crowns can be used for many other tasks, including:

-Anchoring a traditional dental bridge
-Restoring a broken tooth
-Improving the overall look of your smile
-Building up an extremely worn-down tooth
-Protecting a weak tooth so that it doesn’t break
-Covering a misshapen or discolored tooth to enhance its appearance
-Covering a dental implant above the gumline
-Supporting a tooth with limited tooth structure remaining due to a large filling

A custom-made dental crown makes all of these benefits possible. Crowns are made to look just like natural teeth, making it easy to enjoy a radiant smile and excellent oral health. Talk with your dentists about what crowns can do for your personalized smile treatment plan.

Primary teeth are often smaller than permanent adult teeth. If an area of tooth decay compromises one of their molars, there might not be sufficient tooth enamel remaining to repair the tooth with a dental filling.

In a case like this one of our dentists, Dr. Edmon R. Hutchison, Dr. Eric J. Gabrielsen, or Dr. Lena R. Craig might recommend installing a cap or dental crown over the compromised primary tooth.

The treatment process involves removing the tooth enamel layer. This leaves behind a healthy dentin abutment capable of anchoring the dental crown in your child’s mouth. Our dentist will then make an impression of the abutment and the surrounding teeth. This is sent to a professional dental lab to guide the technicians that will create their dental crown.

You will need to return for a short follow up appointment when your child’s dental crown is ready. Our dentist will then cement it in place with a strong dental grade adhesive. This should restore the tooth’s basic function in their mouth until the tooth is naturally lost and replaced with its permanent counterpart.

If you live in Royse City, Texas, and your child has a tooth suffering from a large cavity, please call 972-636-2417 to schedule an appointment at Royse City Dental Care.
