Smithville Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are a versatile restorative solution for damaged, weakened, or cosmetically imperfect teeth. If you’re experiencing dental pain, have a cracked tooth, or need to restore functionality to your smile in Smithville, TX, dental crowns might be the ideal solution. At Spring St. Dental, we provide high-quality, same-day dental crowns using advanced technology for lasting results with minimal waiting time.
At Spring St. Dental, our Smithville cosmetic dentists serve patients throughout Bastrop County, including Smithville, with comprehensive dental crown services. Our experienced dentists utilize cutting-edge CEREC technology and 3D printing capabilities to create custom-made, durable restorations that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
What Are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are custom-fitted caps that completely cover damaged or decayed teeth above the gum line. These tooth-shaped restorations serve multiple purposes, restoring the tooth’s shape, size, strength, and appearance. Made from various materials ranging from porcelain to metal alloys, crowns provide a protective shell that shields your natural tooth from further damage.
Dental crowns can address several common dental issues, including:
- Protecting weak teeth from fracturing or breaking
- Restoring already broken teeth or teeth that have been severely worn down
- Covering and supporting teeth with large fillings when not much natural tooth remains
- Holding dental bridges in place
- Covering misshapen or severely discolored teeth
- Covering dental implants
- Protecting teeth after root canal treatment
Our Smithville patients appreciate that dental crowns not only restore functionality but also enhance the appearance of their smiles, providing both structural and aesthetic benefits.
The Spring St. Dental Difference: Same-Day Crowns
Unlike traditional dental crown procedures that require multiple appointments over several weeks, at Spring St. Dental, we proudly offer same-day crown services for our Smithville patients. Using our advanced CEREC technology and in-office 3D printing capabilities, we can design, fabricate, and place your custom dental crown in a single visit.
The benefits of our same-day crown service include:
Advanced Diagnostic Technology
What truly sets our practice apart is our commitment to using cutting-edge diagnostic technology. Our CBCT cone beam CT scanner allows us to obtain highly detailed 3D images of your teeth and surrounding structures, ensuring precise treatment planning and crown fitting. This advanced imaging technology, combined with our digital impression system, eliminates the need for uncomfortable traditional impressions while providing superior accuracy.
Quicker Treatment Time
Traditional crown procedures typically require 2-3 appointments spread over multiple weeks. With our same-day service, you’ll walk out of our office with your permanent crown in just one visit, saving you valuable time and eliminating the need for temporary crowns.
Digital Precision
Our digital scanning technology captures incredibly precise measurements of your teeth, resulting in crowns that fit perfectly and feel completely natural. This digital workflow reduces the potential for human error, ensuring better outcomes.
High-Quality Materials
We use only the finest ceramic materials for our crowns, which are both durable and aesthetically pleasing. These materials mimic the appearance of natural teeth, including their translucency and color variations, resulting in restorations that are virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth.
Our Dental Crown Process
At Spring St. Dental, we’ve streamlined the crown process for our Smithville patients:
- Comprehensive Examination: We begin with a thorough assessment using our CBCT scanner and intraoral cameras to evaluate your tooth’s condition and determine if a crown is the appropriate treatment.
- Digital Impressions: Instead of messy traditional impression materials, we use a small digital scanner to create a precise 3D model of your tooth.
- Computer-Aided Design: Our dentists use specialized software to design your crown, customizing every aspect for optimal fit and appearance.
- In-Office Fabrication: While you wait, our milling unit or 3D printer creates your crown from a block of high-quality ceramic material.
- Final Placement: Once completed, we check the fit and make any necessary adjustments before permanently cementing the crown in place.
The entire process typically takes just 1-2 hours, and you’ll leave our office with a fully restored tooth.
Caring for Your Dental Crown
With proper care, dental crowns can last 10-15 years or longer. We recommend:
- Maintaining good oral hygiene practices, including brushing twice daily and flossing regularly
- Avoiding chewing hard foods or objects that could damage your crown
- Using a nightguard if you grind your teeth
- Scheduling regular dental check-ups and cleanings
Our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions to help extend the life of your restoration.
