Dental Crowns

Teeth naturally begin to lose their quality and appearance as we age. They become more susceptible to problems like decay, cracks, and discoloration. Dental crowns can help. If you feel like your smile isn’t what it once was, contact Elite Dental Arts.  Dr. Nick M. Mobilia provides these dental crown services.

Crowns can be made of zirconia, porcelain, porcelain fused to metal, or full gold. It is recommended that your crown be a porcelain fused crown or zirconia, as these look and feel the most natural. They can also be customized to match the coloring of your other teeth.


 


The entire process will take 2 appointments. At the first appointment, your tooth will be trimmed, reconfigured for reshaping and a mold will be taken of your newly shaped tooth. This mold or impression is what will be used to create your crown. We will send the impression off to a dental laboratory. It takes between 2-3 weeks for the crown to be made. You will be given a temporary crown until then.


 


At your final appointment, dental cement or bonding material will be used to set the crown onto your tooth. Crowns are durable and can last between 10-15 years. Make sure to care for it as you would any of your other teeth. The better you take care of your crown, the longer it will last.

  1. Dental crowns are really amazing, mainly for those who are concerned about the aesthetics. My teeth had lost their quality and colouration after years of smoking. After I quit the nasty habit, I went to the dentist Torrance and got my teeth examined, as well as got some dental crowns placed.
