What is the Process to Get a Metal-Free Dental Crown?
First, Dr. Pogue will give you an exam to determine whether or not your damaged tooth actually needs a crown. If it does, he’ll slightly reshape the tooth in order to securely fit the crown over it. He’ll digitally scan the tooth to create a model and design your crown, so it will have the perfect look and fit. Once this plan is ready, it will be given to our in-house milling machine where your crown will be sculpted from a single piece of dental porcelain. Then, he’ll place the crown into your mouth, make a few final adjustments, and check your bite. At this point, your crown should look just like one of your other teeth, allowing you to smile with confidence.
