How do dental crowns work?

A dental crown is a cap placed over a tooth to protect it. It helps fix teeth that are weak, broken or misshapen. Your Aspen Dental dentist shapes the tooth, takes a mold and then places the crown on top. The crown looks and works like a real tooth.

How long do dental crowns last?

Dental crowns can last up to 15 years. They last longer when you brush, floss and visit your dentist often. Chewing on hard foods can wear them down. If the crown gets damaged, your dentist may be able to replace it.

Can I whiten my teeth if I have crowns?

Crowns don’t respond to whitening treatments, so their color remains the same. If you whiten your natural teeth, your crown may no longer blend in. For the best color match, it’s usually recommended to whiten your teeth before getting a crown.

Can I eat normally with a dental crown?

Yes, you can eat normally once the crown is set in place. At first, it’s a good idea to chew on the other side of your mouth. Try to avoid sticky or hard foods that might loosen the crown.

Do dental crowns require special care?

Dental crowns don’t need special care, but you still need to brush and floss every day. Regular dental visits help keep the crown and your other teeth healthy. Avoid grinding your teeth and ask your Aspen Dental dentist if a night guard might help.

I really appreciate the experience I had at this office. Although the care isn’t inexpensive, the professionals here give you the impression that they are doing their very best. The equipment is state-of-the-art and the doctors move quickly and efficiently. I would consider this office costly, but worth the cost because you receive quality and professional care. This is the most peace of mind I’ve ever had after visiting a dental office and I’m truly appreciative of the care and compassion from the doctors and staff.

I had an amazing experience at this dental office and I truly can’t thank the team enough. Danni and Tanya were incredibly kind, warm, and attentive, making me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in. Dr. Greene and Dr. Serratelli were extremely professional, patient, and gentle. I was honestly nervous about having my wisdom teeth removed, but the whole process was unbelievably quick and smooth — both of my wisdom teeth were taken out in less than five minutes, and I felt absolutely no pain at all. Everyone took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire visit. Their care, patience, and attention to detail really made a huge difference. I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dental team!

I took my dad to his consultation, and we were extremely happy with the friendly and professional staff. My dad is an apprehensive patient, but he walked out with the biggest smile that I have seen in years! We are overjoyed! Tonya, the hygienist made my dad feel very comfortable and she did an amazing deep cleaning! I will be switching to Aspen Dental and I encouraged my family to do the same.
