Dental Crowns Q & A

Dental crowns are a versatile treatment with restorative and cosmetic applications. At James Peterson Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, we use crowns to strengthen teeth that are too damaged or weak for a filling and cover discolored, broken, cracked, or worn teeth. Crowns are strong, durable, and functional, but that’s not all. Since many people have never had a crown before, let’s answer some common questions about them to raise awareness about this tooth-saving treatment.

Why We Love It!

We use amazing dental technology at our office, from digital X-rays to 3D printing. A technology that we are particularly proud of is Smile Design, a digital process that lets us design a patient’s dream smile and show them the results of their treatment before they even begin. Not only does Smile Design create a preview of the completed smile transformation, but it also illustrates every step of treatment, giving the patient complete confidence that their treatment plan will give them the results they desire.

Restorative Dentistry Can Save Your Smile

Taking care of your oral health is important, not just for your smile, but for your physical and mental well-being too. When a problem arises, like a cavity or a toothache, more often than not, you will need a restorative treatment to repair the damage, relieve the pain, and recover the full function of your smile. Restorative dental treatments are some of the most common procedures Dr. Peterson performs, but they are also some of the most important, because they are truly healing and transformative.

Top Reasons To Replace Missing Teeth

When a patient experiences tooth loss, it can bring about a number of feelings. If you or a loved one has experienced this, you can definitely relate. No matter how you are feeling or the circumstances that caused you to lose your tooth, it is important to replace any missing teeth as soon as possible. Failure to do so can lead to significant problems with your oral health. The only teeth that do not need to be replaced are wisdom teeth and teeth that have been removed before orthodontic treatment.
