Dental crowns are a revolutionary invention in the world of dentistry!

The crown essentially replaces the outer part of the tooth, the visible part that we chew with. If a tooth breaks or wears down, but its root remains healthy, the crown is placed over the healthy root of the tooth. In cases where the root needs to be removed or the patient is missing teeth, a dental implant is first inserted, followed by a crown.

In agreement with the dentist, the patient decides on the shape, color, and size of the future crown. Then an impression of the jaw is taken, worn teeth are brushed, and temporary crowns are placed until the permanent ones are made by the dentist. After the permanent crowns are made, the temporary ones are removed and the permanent crowns are placed, which can last, depending on personal dental care, for several decades.

The process of placing crowns on an implant is identical to that of placing them on a healthy tooth. However, the difference is that instead of grinding down teeth, an implant is installed, which will serve as the foundation for the crown. The implant, which is the screw, is installed by our dentists after an agreement with the patient and the creation of an individual treatment plan.

After the implant is placed, temporary crowns are applied, which are removed after the implant heals (which usually takes several months), and permanent crowns are then inserted in their place. Before making the permanent crowns, the patient agrees with the dentist on their appearance: color, size, length, and shape.
