A crown is an effective option to address individual teeth with extensive tooth decay or damage. Dr. Palmer offers dental crowns to Houston, TX individuals to help cover and support the visible part of a damaged tooth while restoring its normal size and shape. Crowns are designed to match the surrounding teeth and may be recommended to treat broken, decayed, or misshapen teeth, or other forms of structural damage. These restorations may also be integrated into an oral appliance to create a bridge or positioned over dental implants to restore teeth that are missing. Schedule your appointment at Palmer Dental Group of Houston to find out if a custom crown can improve the appearance and health of your smile.
At other dental clinics, the dental crown process is typically split into two separate appointments. Thanks to the latest advancements in dental technology, the dental crown process at our Houston, TX practice can be completed in 1 – 2 hours. During your visit, Dr. Palmer will numb your damaged tooth and can offer sedation dentistry to enhance your comfort level if you prefer. Once the damaged area of the tooth has been removed, several images will be taken so the CEREC® software can create a 3D model. The model will then be used to create your new porcelain crown. Once your new crown has been created, it will be placed over the treated tooth to sustain normal oral function and a natural aesthetic.
