Dental Crowns in Norcross, GA

A custom dental crown is an ideal solution for a single tooth that has been worn down and damaged. Also known as a cap, dental crowns are made custom to fit snugly over the affected tooth and match the shade of your surrounding teeth for a seamless and natural appearance. At MINT dentistry, we offer dental crowns to treat large cavities, protect weak teeth, restore cracked teeth, and cover discolored teeth. Our team uses high-grade porcelain crowns to keep your smile looking natural. MINT dentistry patients have the most gorgeous smiles in Norcross, GA. Contact us to schedule an appointment at our plush dental center to get more information about how a dental crown can restore your smile and oral health.

There are many situations where a dental crown can become the solution. Crowns may be needed to keep a tooth (weakened by decay) from breaking or they can hold together a cracked tooth. Dental crowns can be utilized to repair a tooth that is worn down or stained, mask teeth that are misshapen, or cover a tooth that has received a root canal. Our Norcross, GA dentists also use crowns to treat moderate dental cavities, serve as part of a bridge, and connect to dental implants for tooth replacement. At MINT dentistry, our crowns are custom made with high-quality porcelain and are secured using advanced technology to help ensure a restoration that lasts a long time and looks beautiful.

A pair of Beats headphones and MINT sunglasses are provided to you after you sit down in one of our massaging chairs to help you feel relaxed during your appointment. First, the area to be treated will be prepped with local anesthesia. More sedation methods may be available if you have any fears or anxieties. Once you are comfortable, your MINT dentist will prepare your teeth by removing any damage and will remove a portion of the enamel so the dental crown fits seamlessly. We will then get digital impressions of the treatment area (or a previously placed dental implant) that will be used to make your custom crown. A temporary crown will be placed over your tooth until your custom crown is ready. When your custom crown is complete, our support staff will schedule an appointment for placement. The restoration will be attached to your dental implant or cemented to your natural tooth. Once your crown is set in place, your dentist may adjust the fit so it feels comfortable.

You should be able to leave our office after a dental crown procedure unless stronger sedation was used. We will teach you how to care for your crown, including how to clean it and what food you may need to avoid. In some cases, our team might suggest you come back for a bite adjustment following the placement of a crown to make certain the alignment is correct. During your exams at MINT dentistry in Norcross, GA, a skilled dental professional will assess your crown and adjust the fit as needed so it feels comfortable. Your dentist will let you know when the crown should be repaired or replaced; however, with proper care, a crown can last for many years. If you experience any problems with your crown (for example, it feels loose or gets knocked out), contact us for help. Don't try to fix it or put it back in yourself since this can lead to an infection or bad fit.

A portion of the cost of your dental crown may be covered based on your dental policy and specific coverage. After speaking with your insurance, we can better calculate your remaining bill. In your consultation, we will help you select the best options for your crown based on your goals and budget. Our business team will also discuss payment options, including the MINT Discount Plan, to make your treatment more affordable. MINT dentistry in Norcross, GA is committed to helping each of our patients get a healthy, attractive smile. Our custom restorations are crafted from high-quality porcelain material so you can feel confident that your smile looks amazing and your results will last for many years.
