As anyone who\u2019s had a crown fitted in the past could tell you, the process of getting one is usually not the most pleasant dental experience you\u2019ll have. Traditionally, it takes at least two appointments and you\u2019ll probably need an uncomfortable temporary crown while your final crown is being made.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Times have changed<\/strong>
Here at the Healthy Smile centre<\/strong>, your dentist in Alexandria<\/a> can make you a tailor-made, great-looking crown in a matter of moments. You now only need one appointment to get a crown.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The lengthy process of getting a traditional crown<\/strong>
In the past, getting a crown with your dentist in Alexandria would take two visits, with a waiting period between them.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Visit 1<\/strong>
Your tooth would be prepared by grinding it to a shape that will allow your crown to be fitted on top of it. Next, a impression would be taken of your mouth. The impression would be used by a lab technician to make your crown. You\u2019d need to wait a few days whilst your crown got crafted. During this time, you\u2019d wear a temporary crown, probably made of a plastic material.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Visit 2<\/strong>
Your temporary crown would be removed and your final crown would be fitted.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
