The Process of Getting a Dental Crown

Consultation

The journey begins with a thorough consultation, where our dentists and team will evaluate your dental health and discuss the best crown options for your situation.

Preparation

The tooth receiving the crown is reshaped to ensure a proper fit. An impression is then taken to create a custom crown that matches the rest of your teeth.

Fitting

Once the crown is fabricated, you will return to ConfiDent Smile Studio for a final fitting. The crown is then adjusted if necessary and permanently cemented in place.
