Before planning the crown, the dentist has to look beyond the current filling or broken enamel. A trip to the X-ray machine may be necessary if the tooth has a history of cavities or the roots are in danger. Schedule a consultation for other treatments if the tooth requires additional procedures.<\/p>\r\n
Gums are healthy, the procedure is straightforward and rarely has complications. Inflammation and periodontitis can make taking an impression or scanning difficult and give the crown a poor fit near the gum line. It is better to cure the periodontitis at the periodontist\u2019s office than to risk a second procedure.<\/p>\r\n
Your bite is another factor in crown preparation. The dentist can measure the fit of the crown on adjacent teeth to ensure that it does not protrude and irritate the oral cavity. A malocclusion is noticeable immediately after the temporary crown is installed.<\/p>\r\n
Bring the following information and objects to the appointment:<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 Information about the medical history, particularly problems with previous crowns and allergies to dental materials;<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 A complaint about the tooth or discomfort when chewing, even if the pain is mild;<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 Requirements for the color of the crown; although the dentist will help you choose a shade, it is better not to postpone the decision if you want to match the smile;<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 Recent X-rays. The dentist may take pictures during the procedure, but having the films from past visits is useful for determining the condition of the tooth.<\/p>\r\n
The last and most critical survey is done before the tooth is permanently crowned. The dentist must examine the oral cavity, gums, bite, and the problem tooth itself and take the necessary X-rays.
Double-check all details to avoid errors and complications. If the dentist\u2019s instructions do not add up, ask questions.<\/p>\r\n
