Their FAQ
Answers from their website.
Is dental crown treatment painful?
Most patients feel little discomfort during the procedure. Dentists use local anesthesia to ensure the treatment is comfortable.
How long does it take to get a dental crown?
Dental crown treatment usually takes two visits. The first visit prepares the tooth, and the second visit places the final crown.
Can dental crowns look natural?
Yes. Modern crowns are made from materials that match the colour and shape of natural teeth.
Can a dental crown break?
Although crowns are strong, they can become damaged if exposed to excessive pressure. Avoid chewing very hard foods or objects.
How often should I get a dental exam?
Most people should visit every six months. Some may need to come in more often, depending on their oral health.
Are dental exams uncomfortable?
Dental exams are usually quick and gentle. Tell your dentist if you feel any discomfort.
What happens during a dental exam?
The dentist checks your teeth, gums, bite, and the inside of your mouth. X-rays may be taken if needed.
Do regular exams help prevent big problems?
Yes. Finding problems early makes treatment easier and helps avoid more serious issues later.
Need another dentist?
