Our personalized crown fitting process at Neola Dental
Comprehensive Examination
During your initial visit, we assess the condition of your tooth and take detailed images to plan your crown placement.
Tooth Preparation
The damaged tooth is carefully reshaped to create space for the crown while preserving as much of the natural tooth as possible.
Impression Taking
We take precise impressions of your teeth to craft a crown that matches your bite and blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Temporary Crown Placement
A temporary crown is placed to protect your tooth while your permanent crown is being created.
Final Placement
Once your custom crown is ready, it is securely bonded to your tooth, restoring both function and appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions about traditional crowns
What are traditional crowns made of?
Traditional crowns can be made from a variety of materials, including porcelain, ceramic, metal, or a combination like porcelain fused to metal. The choice depends on factors like durability, appearance, and where the crown will be placed.
How long do traditional crowns last?
With good care, traditional crowns typically last between 10 and 15 years. However, some can last much longer if maintained properly through good oral hygiene and regular dental visits.
How do I care for my traditional crowns?
Caring for traditional crowns is straightforward: brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, floss gently around the crown, and avoid biting on hard objects like ice. Regular dental checkups will also help ensure your crown stays in great condition.
Can traditional crowns be used for both front and back teeth?
Yes, traditional crowns are versatile and can be used for both front and back teeth. For front teeth, porcelain or ceramic is often chosen for a natural look, while metal or porcelain-fused-to-metal is ideal for the durability needed for back teeth.
