Dental crowns are custom-made for your teeth. Our dentists will take an impression of your mouth and send it to a dental lab where a crown will be made to fit your mouth. Once the crown is ready, you’ll be called in for an appointment for installation. After a tooth is prepared for a crown by removing some of the enamel, the crown fits over the remainder of your natural tooth. It provides a solid structure to preserve the tooth, while also creating a durable biting surface and a natural appearance. The average lifespan of a dental crown is ten years.
