Crowns
Sometimes, a crown may be the only option to save a severely injured tooth. Also known as a cap, a crown fits securely over a prepare tooth to restore stability, function, and appearance. Dr. Coleman will place an all-ceramic, porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM), or gold crown based on the location of the damaged tooth and the pressure it must regularly sustain.
The process for your custom crown usually takes two visits. Dr. Coleman will first prepare your tooth, then take an impression to send to our quality dental lab where an expert will fabricate your crown. The dentist will also fit you with a temporary crown to wear until the permanent one is completed. Once we receive the restoration from the lab, you will return to our San Diego dental office so that Dr. Coleman can make permanently secure the crown.
Let us give you a solid smile. Call our North County San Diego dental office today and schedule an appointment with Dr. Coleman to discuss the benefit of crowns. Residents of Oceanside, Vista, Carlsbad, San Marcos, and the surrounding areas visit our San Diego practice.
