The Process of Crown Placement
Obtaining your personalized crown usually involves two convenient visits. In the initial appointment, We meticulously prepare the tooth by eliminating damaged sections and reshaping it to fit the crown. Digital impressions are taken to ensure precise measurements, guaranteeing an impeccable fit for your restoration. A temporary crown will safeguard the tooth while our dental laboratory fabricates your permanent solution. During the follow-up visit, the temporary crown is removed, and your new crown is securely cemented in place.
Safeguard your compromised teeth with resilient, natural-looking crowns that restore function and aesthetic appeal. Reach out to schedule your consultation with our dentist about dental crowns in Alexandria, Virginia. Call 703-354-0111 for further details.
