Dental Crowns at French Smiles 

At French Smiles in Snellville, GA, we understand that your time is valuable and that dental treatments should not only be effective but also convenient. That’s why we specialize in providing dental crowns, including the same-day crowns Snellville patients prefer, using advanced CEREC technology. Whether you need to restore a damaged tooth or enhance your smile’s appearance, our dental crowns are designed to meet your needs with precision and speed.

What Are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns are custom-fitted coverings or “caps” placed over a tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are used to protect a weak tooth from breaking, restore a broken or severely worn tooth, cover and support a tooth with a large filling, hold a dental bridge in place, cover misshapen or severely discolored teeth, or cover a dental implant.

Benefits of Dental Crowns

Dental crowns offer several benefits, making them a popular choice for those looking to improve their dental health and aesthetics:

• Durability: Crowns are designed to last for many years, making them a long-term solution for restoring teeth.
• Protection: By fully encasing the tooth, crowns protect it from further decay, damage, and wear.
• Aesthetic Improvement: Crowns are made to match the color and appearance of your natural teeth, enhancing the overall look of your smile.
• Functionality: Restoring the structure of the tooth improves your ability to chew and speak properly.

The Process of Getting Dental Crowns

The traditional process for receiving a dental crown typically involves two visits to the dentist. The first visit includes preparing the tooth, taking impressions, and placing a temporary crown. The impressions are then sent to a lab where the permanent crown is created, requiring a second visit for placement.

However, at French Smiles, we streamline this process with CEREC technology, allowing us to offer the same-day crowns Snellville loves.

Same-Day Crowns with CEREC Technology

CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) technology enables us to complete the dental crown procedure in just one visit. Here’s how it works:

• Digital Impressions: Instead of traditional molds, we use a digital scanner to create a precise 3D image of your tooth. This process is faster and more comfortable for the patient.
• On-Site Crafting: The CEREC machine uses the digital impression to mill a custom crown from a ceramic block right in our office. This process takes about an hour.
• Immediate Placement: Once the crown is ready, it is checked for fit and color, then permanently bonded to your tooth. Adjustments can be made immediately to ensure perfect fit and comfort.
• This efficient process not only saves time but also reduces the discomfort and inconvenience of multiple appointments. Our same-day crowns are of the highest quality, offering durability and a natural appearance that our patients appreciate.

Caring for Your Dental Crowns

While dental crowns are designed to be durable, proper care is essential to extend their lifespan. Here are some tips to care for your crowns:

• Maintain Good Oral Hygiene: Brush twice a day, floss daily, and use an antiseptic mouthwash to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
• Avoid Hard Foods: Chewing on hard foods, ice, or hard candy can damage your crowns.
• Regular Dental Check-Ups: Visit French Smiles regularly for check-ups and cleanings to ensure the health of your crowns and natural teeth.
