Get A Strong, Dazzling Smile With Dental crowns in Fairfield County, CT

Have you cracked a tooth? Maybe you’ve lost a major filling? Our dental crowns in Fairfield County are a fantastic option to restore the function and beauty of your smile. A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over damaged or weakened teeth and acts like a protective shield to restore their strength and functionality.

The Dental Crown Procedure

First, we'll chat about your concerns – we want to know everything that concerns you. Then, we'll take a good look at your teeth to see if a crown is the best choice for your dental restoration needs. If it is, we'll numb the area around your tooth and then gently reshape your tooth to make sure your crown will fit perfectly. Then, we use an intra-oral scanner to create the perfect crown just for you.

While your custom crown is being made, we'll place a temporary one. It'll protect your tooth and keep your smile looking great. When your permanent crown arrives, we'll make sure it fits perfectly and looks natural next to your other teeth. Then, we'll gently secure it in place, and voila – you're good to go!


The Benefits Of Dental Crowns

  • They’re built to last and can withstand the wear and tear of everyday chewing and biting.
  • They can transform the appearance of your tooth to give you a smile that shines with confidence.
  • They can be used for a variety of restoration, including post-root canals, large fillings, or just for cosmetics.
  • When you feel good about your smile, it shows! Crowns can help you project confidence and make a fantastic first impression.

Caring for Your Dental Crown

Your dental crown will need some TLC to stay strong and beautiful. Maintaining good oral hygiene is essential! Brush your teeth twice a day using a soft-bristled brush and floss daily. Pay particular attention to the area around the crown where plaque can build up. We also recommend avoiding habits like chewing on hard objects or using your teeth for anything other than chewing food.


Frequently Asked Questions


How long will my dental crowns last?

Dental crowns typically last anywhere between 5-15 years. However, this is all dependent on your oral hygiene habits, grinding habits, diet, and the type of crown material used.


Will a dental crown feel strange in my mouth?

There might be a slight adjustment period, but most of our patients get accustomed quickly. Our crowns are refined to feel smooth and comfortable to let you bite and chew normally.


What happens if my crown breaks?

If your crown has accidentally chipped or cracked, contact our office immediately. We can repair minor chips or recement loose crowns. However, if the damage is more severe, a new crown might be necessary.


Is the procedure painful?

We prioritize patient comfort! We numb the area around your tooth with local anesthesia to minimize your discomfort. You might experience some mild sensitivity after the procedure, but this can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
