The installation of dental crowns at Obesity and Aesthetic Surgery in Tunisia
The dental crown is a kind of dental prosthesis which is mainly used for aesthetic reasons but also for strengthening, protection and recovery. Not being a removable dental appliance, this prosthesis can be associated in certain cases with the dental implant.
If you then want to find the shape of your teeth, their volume and their initial color, do not hesitate to consult your dental surgeon at Obesity and Aesthetic Surgery.
Your dentist determines if you are a good candidate for dental crown placement and supports you throughout the process to provide expert advice to provide you with normal, full and pleasant dentition.
Benefits of the dental crown
Although its primary advantage is its aesthetic appearance, the dental crown has several other benefits. Indeed, placing a crown is the ideal solution for:
• Reconstruction of damaged or broken teeth.
• Strengthening weak teeth.
• The covering of a dental implant.
• Protection of worn and fractured teeth.
• Correction of chewing problems.
• Improved smile.
• Solving problems with extremely discolored teeth.
Types of dental crowns
In order to offer you the best experience in dental surgery, your practitioner at Obesity and Aesthetic Surgery offers two types of dental crowns: metal-ceramic or ceramic-ceramic.
The installation of the ceramic metal dental crown is the most advantageous in terms of durability. Indeed, the composition of this crown which combines ceramic and metal, offers more solidity and resistance to this dental prosthesis.
Ceramic-ceramic dental crowns are also distinguished by their strength but also their important aesthetic appearance. Made entirely of ceramic to provide an important natural appearance, this crown is of high quality because it avoids the risk of allergy.
Your dental surgeon supports you in choosing the dental crown that best suits your needs and ensures you an effective dental surgery operation.
Support with the installation of the dental crown
The dental crown installation procedure requires two procedures from your dental surgeon. During the first appointment, your dentist examines the tooth to make sure it can support a crown.
Indeed, it performs the size of the damaged tooth as well as taking the impression so that it achieves a tailor-made dental crown adapted perfectly to your mouth. Temporary, this crown will be replaced by another permanent which will be put in place at the second meeting.
Post-operative recommendations
The lifespan of a dental crown is generally between 5 and 20 years. This comes back to the oral hygiene measures adopted by the patient. In fact, in order to properly preserve your dental crown, it is strongly recommended that you:
- Brush your teeth correctly and regularly
- Avoid sticky (such as caramel, gum, etc.) and hard foods.
- Try to chew on the side that does not have the temporary crown.
- Do not grind your teeth, do not bite your nails, etc.
- In the event of any incident that may arise, do not hesitate to contact your dentist as soon as possible.
The emergency intervention of our team of experienced practitioners will allow you to avoid the slightest risk of damage to your dental crown.
