At Maryland Holistic Dentistry in Dunkirk, Annapolis, and Crownsville,, we provide custom crowns designed to restore the strength, function, and appearance of damaged teeth. A dental crown is a custom-made restoration that covers the entire visible portion of a tooth, effectively acting as a new, durable outer surface. Our holistic approach ensures that these restorations are not only strong and aesthetic but also biocompatible with your body. We focus on natural materials and advanced techniques to support your overall health.
A dental crown is a custom-fabricated ‘cap’ that fits securely over a damaged or weakened tooth. Its purpose is to restore the tooth’s original shape, size, and strength, providing both functional and cosmetic benefits. Crowns encase the entire visible portion of the tooth, protecting it from further damage while improving its appearance.
Your journey begins with a comprehensive evaluation, including digital imaging, to assess your tooth’s condition. The affected tooth is then meticulously prepared by gently reshaping it to ensure the crown will fit precisely and securely. We prioritize preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible during this step.
Instead of messy traditional molds, we use advanced digital impression scanning to create an accurate 3D model of your tooth. This digital model allows for precise custom design, ensuring your new crown matches the color, shape, and bite of your natural teeth. Computer-assisted technology aids in achieving optimal aesthetics and function.
Your crown is then fabricated using biocompatible, metal-free materials like durable ceramics, porcelain, or zirconia. These materials are chosen for their strength, natural appearance, and compatibility with your body. In select cases, we may offer same-day crowns for expedited fabrication and placement.
Once your custom crown is ready, it will be securely bonded to your prepared tooth. We then meticulously check your bite and make any necessary fine-tuning adjustments to ensure maximum comfort and proper alignment. Our goal is a seamless, natural-feeling restoration.
