Digital Ceramic Crowns for Teeth Coverage and Protection
Digital ceramic or porcelain crowns are the newest and most promising advancement in dentistry. Unlike traditional dental crowns, digital dental crowns are made through a digital impression. This impression is then fed to a CAD-CAM machine which customizes your dental crown from an entire block of ceramic.
Digital ceramic crowns are gaining immense popularity due to their quick turnaround time, usually same-day delivery, higher strength than regular ceramic crowns, and better aesthetics. These crowns can sustain higher stresses, such as in the case of bruxism (teeth grinding and jaw clenching). This is because they are manufactured from a single block.
Where are digital ceramic crowns used?
Digital ceramic crowns have a wide array of uses. They are most often used for teeth coverage and protection owing to their higher strength. Digital ceramic crowns can be used for front and back teeth and can be used in the following situations.
-
In cases of severe teeth fractures for restoring the shape, size, strength, and function of the tooth.
-
In cases of worn-off and shortened teeth.
-
To restore aesthetics and strength of teeth worn down due to bruxism.
-
To restore teeth after a root canal treatment.
-
Digital ceramic crowns can also be given to restore a heavily damaged decayed tooth.
-
Smile designing.
The procedure for getting Digital Ceramic Crowns at DerMund
The process starts with computerized intraoral teeth scanning. Viewing the teeth as a magnified image gives us a precise picture of the extent of damage and ensures you get the best treatment possible.
Next, our expert dentist will take a digital impression—no need to stuff your mouth with putty. Digital impressions are hassle-free, comfortable, and have precise measuring capacity.
The next step is to select the color for your crown. To ensure you get the exact shade as your natural teeth, we do a digital tooth color analysis. This will give you superior aesthetics and a natural-looking crown.
Next, the data is fed to the CAD-CAM machine, and your crown will be created to look perfectly natural in your mouth.
