Why Should I Get Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are a versatile solution for a variety of dental issues. If you have a tooth that's severely worn down, cracked, weakened, or severely discolored, a dental crown can restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. They're also used to hold a dental bridge in place or cover a dental implant. With Dr. Hudson's expertise in providing lab-made crowns, you can expect a restoration that's durable, comfortable, and virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth.

The Benefits Of Dental Crowns
Enhanced Appearance
Dental crowns can dramatically improve the appearance of your smile. Whether it's a front tooth that's discolored or a back tooth that's cracked, a crown can restore its natural look. Dr. Hudson's lab-made crowns are custom-designed to match the color, shape, and size of your other teeth, ensuring a seamless blend with your smile.
Restored Function
A damaged tooth can make it difficult to chew or speak properly. With a dental crown, you can restore the full function of your tooth. The crown acts as a strong, durable cap, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence again.
Long-lasting Solution
With proper care, dental crowns can last for many years. They're made from durable materials that can withstand the pressures of biting and chewing. Plus, with Dr. Hudson's lab-made crowns, you can expect a fit that's specifically tailored to your tooth, further enhancing its durability and comfort.
The Dental Crown Treatment Process
Examination and Preparation
The first step in the dental crown process involves a thorough examination of your tooth. Dr. Hudson will assess the extent of the damage and prepare the tooth for the crown. This may involve reshaping the tooth to ensure the crown fits perfectly.
Taking Impressions
Once your tooth is prepared, Dr. Hudson will take an impression of your tooth. This impression is sent to the lab, where your custom-made crown will be crafted. This ensures a crown that fits seamlessly with your other teeth and feels natural in your mouth.
Placing the Crown
After your crown is made, you'll return to Hudson Dental for the final step. Dr. Hudson will carefully place the crown over your prepared tooth, checking the fit and your bite. Once everything is perfect, the crown is cemented into place, restoring your tooth's function and appearance.
