A dental crown serves as a protective and restorative solution for damaged or compromised teeth. If a tooth has experienced fractures, breaks, or undergone a root canal, Dr. Lena Khan may recommend crowning it. Crowns safeguard the tooth from further damage while enhancing its size and shape. At Dental Studio of Melissa, our crowns are designed to last for many years with proper care, supporting healthy smiles across Melissa, TX.
Several factors may necessitate the placement of a dental crown:
Crowns can be placed over virtually any tooth in need of restoration, and older crowns can be easily replaced in our office.
The procedure involves several steps for a precise fit. Local anesthesia is administered, then the affected tooth is carefully shaped to create space for the new crown. Impressions are taken to create a custom crown that matches your natural teeth, and a temporary crown protects the tooth in the meantime. At a follow-up appointment, the permanent crown is bonded securely with dental cement, the bite is adjusted for comfort, and you receive aftercare instructions to maintain optimal oral hygiene.

If someone told me I'd have a 5-star experience at a dentist of all places, I'd call them a liar. Well, I just had two.

I needed dental work that I had put off for years because I was terrified of the dentist. I thought it was going to be so painful, but it wasn't.
