Crown and Vaneer
Explained

A veneer is a thin shell that is made out of porcelain or ceramic and goes on front facing of the tooth. It can be used to close gaps, make teeth even in length, cover tooth deformity cover and dark stains and create a uniform looking smile. It can transform your smile that can boost your confidence.
Crown are recommended when there is advanced tooth structure loss due to decay or trauma or root canal treated back tooth to restore function and appearance. There are different types of crown and we can recommend one based on your need and expectation.

A crown covers the entire tooth. With a crown, more of the tooth needs to be filed or ground down to prepare for the crown placement.If you have tooth decay, your dentist will remove the decayed part of the tooth before making the crown. In this case, your tooth may need to be built up to support the crown.

Your tooth may also need to be built up if it’s damaged. You may have a local anesthetic for this procedure.

What’s involved with getting a crown?

  • Your dentist will produce an impression of your tooth by digitally scanning it or by making a mold. The image or mold will be sent out to a lab for fabrication of the crown, if the dental office doesn’t have a lab facility.
  • The dentist may place a temporary crown on your ground-down tooth so that you can use your tooth while the permanent crown is being made.
  • When the permanent crown is ready, the dentist will remove the temporary crown. They’ll then place the permanent crown on your tooth and will adjust it so that it fits correctly and your bite is right. Then they’ll cement the new crown into place.
  • Teeth with crowns may have some movement, which can change your bite. If this happens, you’ll need to have the crown adjusted.

How much do they cost?

Veneers and crowns can be costly. Individual costs vary, depending on the size of your tooth, where it is in your mouth, and the average prices in your area.

Most dental insurance programs won’t cover cosmetic dentistry. Also, most dental plans have a maximum annual limit of coverage. Check with your insurance company to see what they’ll cover.
