A perhaps less glamorous but equally vital crown is the kind we use in dentistry &#8212; also called a cap, because it fits securely around the entire tooth. Yes, crowns treat your smile like royalty, fully restoring or enhancing the strength and appearance of a damaged tooth. And a beautiful porcelain crown blends flawlessly with the rest of your smile, so no one is any the wiser. Your dentist in Dallas, GA performs crowns as part of our list of restorative services.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everything You Wanted to Know About Dental Crowns<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From holding together parts of a broken tooth to remaking a worn tooth or restoring major decay or damage, crowns take care of a number of dental issues. How does a porcelain crown differ from one made of other materials, like gold or metal alloys? The most significant difference is, of course, in the way they look. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A porcelain crown blends beautifully with the rest of your teeth, giving you a smile you\u2019ll be excited to flaunt. Walking around with noticeable dental work can affect the way you feel about your smile &#8212; and that means you\u2019re missing out on the extra <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scientificamerican.com\/article\/smile-it-could-make-you-happier\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">endorphin boost<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> people get from grinning. So maybe it seems like a leap, but there\u2019s actually plenty of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/blog\/sideways-view\/201410\/the-surprising-psychology-smiling\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">evidence<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to suggest that getting a natural-looking dental crown can improve your overall <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/news.nationalpost.com\/health\/a-gap-free-smile-leads-to-better-quality-of-life-study-finds\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">quality of life<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by giving you more reasons to smile. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A porcelain crown is completed in just two visits to Distinctive Dentistry. The first visit is used for preparation and planning. You leave this initial appointment wearing a temporary crown. By the time you come back for your second visit, your permanent dental crown has been manufactured by an expert ceramist and is ready for its final placement. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take Care of Your Porcelain Crown<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As long as you take good care of it, your porcelain crown can last for many years. What does crown maintenance require? Brushing, flossing, and regularly scheduled\u00a0visits to your dentist. As you clean your teeth at home, remember to concentrate especially on the area around the base of the crown. It\u2019s easy for plaque and bacteria to build up here, causing gum disease and further tooth decay. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to Talk About Porcelain Crowns? <\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019d like to discuss your options for an all ceramic restoration, please do not hesitate to get in touch with Distinctive Dentistry.
