Procedure Time With Dental Crowns

The dental crown procedure is one of the least invasive cosmetic dentistry solutions to a damaged tooth. In just two short visits, you will have a capped tooth that will:

  • Shield your tooth from further damage
  • Replace a worn or damaged crown
  • Have regained functionality

During your first dental visit, Smiles By Sands will make an impression of your teeth and send it to our laboratory where your dental crown will be created. In the meantime, we will provide your tooth with a temporary crown to protect it from further damage

After two to three weeks, the crown is finished. Simply return for another short visit and we will attach the crown to your damaged tooth.

Sometimes, the procedure can be slightly prolonged. It all depends on your current oral health condition and the reason why you are seeking a dental crown. For example, if your tooth has significant decay, a root canal might be required before the crown can be placed.

While both visits are relatively painless and non-invasive, at Smiles By Sands, we understand that any dental visit can cause stress and anxiety, which is why practice sedation dentistry. Don’t let your dental anxiety prevent you from addressing your oral health concerns.
