Dental Crowns In Sandpoint

At MacNeill Family Dentistry, we specialize in a variety of dental treatments, including dental crowns. With our advanced techniques and personalized approach, we can restore the functionality and aesthetics of your teeth using high-quality dental crowns.

What are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns, also known as caps, are custom-made restorations that are designed to cover a damaged or weakened tooth. They completely encase the visible part of the tooth above the gumline and are commonly used to restore teeth that have undergone root canal treatment, have large fillings, or are severely decayed, cracked, or misshapen.

Benefits of Dental Crowns

Choosing dental crowns offers several benefits that make them an ideal solution for restoring your smile:

1. Enhanced Protection: Dental crowns provide a protective barrier against further damage, helping to preserve the tooth's structure and preventing future complications.
2. Restored Functionality: Crowns restore the strength and functionality of a damaged tooth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
3. Aesthetic Improvement: Crowns are custom-made to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, enhancing the appearance of your smile and boosting your self-confidence.
4. Long-Lasting Durability: Our dental crowns are crafted using high-quality materials that are built to last, providing you with a durable and long-lasting solution for your dental needs.
5. Comfortable Fit: Our team takes great care to ensure that your dental crown fits comfortably and perfectly aligns with your natural bite, ensuring optimal comfort and functionality.

The Dental Crown Process

First, Dr. MacNeill will thoroughly examine your tooth to determine if a crown is the appropriate treatment option for you. If a crown is recommended, she will prepare the tooth by removing any decayed or damaged structure, ensuring a proper fit.

Next, impressions of your tooth will be taken, which will serve as a blueprint for creating your custom crown. Our skilled dental laboratory will craft the crown to match the color, size, and shape of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and natural-looking result.

Then Dr. MacNeill will carefully place and cement the crown onto your tooth, making any necessary adjustments to achieve optimal comfort and functionality. Once in place, the crown will blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, both in appearance and function. If you have a damaged or weakened tooth in need of restoration, we invite you to schedule a consultation at MacNeill Family Dental.
