Relevant information about Crowns Treatment.
- What does the treatment consist on
The treatment consists on putting a crown in the teeth of the patient which are in need of it. A crown is a kind of dental restoration which encircles teeth, and it is bounded to it by using special cement. Crowns are used in order to improve the appearance of the teeth and also to bring them solid strength. Crowns can be done of many materials such as, metal or ceramic materials. Some crowns are made completely of metal, some advantages of using this material are: it allows dentist to get good shapes and metal has also very good properties; they have a long live, and it is unusual for gold or other metals to be broken in consequence of the continues use of it.
- Which problem does the treatment solve
The treatment solves many problems, especially for those patients that have damaged broken and unprotected tooth. The crown is used for preserving the strength of the tooth. This treatment is indicated for patients who: do not present a strong tooth structure, if a large portion of the teeth of the patient has been broken and it cannot be composited again by using other alternative techniques, after having a root canal, crowns are often needed in order to give strength and structure to the teeth, and finally, to improve the aesthetic aspect in order to improve the smile of the patient.
- How is the treatment performed
First of all the patient will have an appointment with the dentistry in order to explain him/her which is the health problem he/she is suffering. Then, your doctor will sedate your tooth and gums and after this, he will give an adequate shape to your tooth. This occurs because your tooth has to be reduced so once the crown is cemented into your tooth it will not be oversized. The doctor will also give to your tooth a specific shape; this is because the crown has to slip over onto the tooth. After this procedure, the doctor will take an impression of your tooth; this impression will be helpful to make the final crown that will recover your tooth. This impression will be done in a special dental laboratory. Another procedure can be done immediately in the first visit to your doctor; this can occur if your dentist has a special machine that works by shaping your crown. These machines are called “ceramic milling machine”, but the main disadvantage is that they work by using a unique material: porcelain.
- Surgery length: It depends on the facilities that the doctor has. If he/she works with the help of a dental lab, it is probable that the treatment will take from two to four weeks. This is because there are many steps to follow in this kind of procedure, the first visit, the take of impressions, among others. The other possibility is that he/she owns what is called a “ceramic milling machine”, this kind of machine presents the main advantage that it can make the process quick. By using this machine, the dentistry will be able to take the impression in the same day that he will give your crown to you. This is perfect because a lot of time is saved and the solution of the problem that brings the patient is solved in only one day. The principal disadvantage is that this type of machine only works by using porcelain, if the patient is searching to have a crown of another material he/she will certainly have to wait a few days more.
- How is the post treatment process
The post treatment process will not bring any special complication to the patient who goes under this procedure. Normal activities can be resumed the same day of having the implant put on in the correct place of the missing part of the teeth. Physical activities are not contra indicated, because the treatment is not serious, and it is a normal denture procedure. Crowns will have to be taken care by using special cleanness products that are recommended by professionals, this implies a quota of responsibility that has to be followed in order to take care of the crown.
Complications related to your final crown are not serious, it is possible for the patient to feel a little nuisance, caused mainly by the fact that it is a new crown that has been put into the patient´s mouth and he/she is not accustomed to it. Before having the final crown, it is probable that the dentistry will use a temporary dental crown. There are some indications recommended by professionals that must be followed: sticky food such as candies, caramel and chewing gum, should be avoided; raw vegetables which are hard could be eliminated from your normal diet because it exists the possibility of breaking the crown; it is probable that the gum that is around your hurt teeth may be more sensible and they will be exposed to feel more pain; finally, it is common that your bite seems strange and rare, because the size of the temporary crown is not correct, in this cases, it is important to inform your dentistry in order not to allow the problem persist and give to it a quick solution.
