Dental crown information and locations in Mexico
The dental crown is a tooth shaped cap used to help restore the functionality, strength, shape,
and size of damaged teeth. Dental crowns can be screwed or cemented depending on the procedure
being used.
The artificial tooth is made from impressions of the mouth to match the shape and color of the
natural teeth. Dental crowns can be used to cover natural teeth or dental implants.
Dental crown used to cover natural teeth
First, the dentist will clean and reshape the tooth receiving the crown, while the permanent
crown is prepared a temporary crown will be placed. Once the crown is ready it will be cemented
in the affected tooth.
Dental crown used to cover a dental implant
The crown is placed over the implant to help restore the functionality of the missing teeth.
There are two methods to place the crown into the abutment; The cemented method can preserve the
crown’s appearance avoiding the unaesthetic screw access and provides greater resistance to
porcelain fracture. The screwed method allows the specialist to easily recover the crown in case
of maintenance or fracture.
