How do I care for my dental crown?

How do I care for my dental crown?

Dental crowns require minimal care. You treat them the same as natural teeth.

  • Visit the dentist twice yearly.
  • Brush and floss at least twice daily.
  • Report crown damage or loosening promptly.

It really is that simple to care for your new tooth crown.

Reasons You May Need a Dental Crown in Maple Ridge, VIC

  • Damaged or Treated Tooth: If you have tooth damage or a treated root canal, you may need a dental crown to restore function.
  • Deep Tooth Decay: If tooth decay is extensive, you may need a crown instead of a filling.
  • Dental Implant: We cap single dental implants with custom tooth crowns.
  • Dental Bridge: We connect artificial bridge teeth to natural teeth using dental crowns.
  • Tooth Lengthening: If you have a short or worn tooth, your dentist may recommend a tooth crown.
