Dental Crowns Decatur, GA

A high-quality crown can help strengthen and protect a damaged or worn-down tooth. Also known as a cap, a custom-made dental crown is designed to fit over the affected tooth and match the shade of your natural teeth for a seamless look. At MINT dentistry, we offer crowns to treat large cavities, protect weak teeth, cover discoloration, and restore cracked teeth. Our team uses custom-made porcelain crowns that look natural and improve your overall smile. MINT dentistry patients have the most gorgeous smiles in Decatur, GA. Contact us to schedule an initial consultation at our modern office to get more information about how a dental crown can restore your oral health while keeping your smile dazzling.

Dental crowns are utilized for a variety of different needs. Crowns may be used to prevent a tooth from breaking when it is weakened by decay or they can hold parts of a tooth together that have already cracked. Crowns may be used to improve a tooth that is damaged or discolored, cover a tooth that is oddly shaped, or protect root canal-treated teeth. Our Decatur, 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 dental crowns are made with top-quality porcelain and placed with advanced technology to help ensure a beautiful result that lasts a long time.

We'll provide MINT sunglasses and Beats headphones once you settle into one of our comfortable massage treatment chairs. First, the treatment area is anesthetized. More sedation methods may be available if you experience anxiety about the process. Once you are ready, your MINT dentist will prepare your teeth by eliminating any areas of decay and filing them down, so the dental crown fits seamlessly. We will then capture digital impressions of your mouth (or a dental implant post) that will be used to make your custom crown. A temporary cap is placed over your tooth while your custom crown is in production. Once your custom crown is complete, we will contact you to set up a follow-up visit to have it placed. The restoration will be cemented onto the tooth (or attached to a dental implant). After the crown is set in place, your dentist will adjust the fit to feel comfortable and match your natural teeth.

You can resume your normal routine after restoration if only local anesthesia is used. A member of our team will go over the best way to care for your new crown, including any foods to avoid and the best way to keep it clean. At times, we may recommend that you schedule a follow-up appointment to check your bite once the crown has settled in place to ensure the alignment is correct. During your oral health exam at MINT dentistry in Decatur, GA, a skilled dental professional will assess your crown and make sure it remains comfortable. We will talk to you about when your crown should be replaced or repaired, but with proper care, a crown should last for a long time. Contact our office if you have any issues with your crown (for example, it becomes loose or falls out). Do not try to fix it or put it back in yourself since this can cause more extensive issues, like an infection or an uneven bite.

Part of the cost may be covered based on your policy and coverage. After speaking with your insurance, we can calculate your out-of-pocket expenses. In your consultation, we can help you select the best material for your crown to fit your needs and budget. Our business team will also review payment options, including the MINT Discount Plan, which can help make your treatment easier to afford. MINT dentistry in Decatur, GA is committed to helping each patient get sexy teeth. Our dental crowns and restorations are made with the highest quality materials available to the dental industry.
