Here are\nsome reasons that your dentist in San Marco may recommend a crown:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>To protect a weak tooth from decay. <\/li><li>To restore the structure of a broken tooth and\nhold it together.<\/li><li>To cover and support a large cavity filling.<\/li><li>To hold a dental bridge in place and restore\nmissing teeth.<\/li><li>To mask misshapen and unsightly teeth.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Long Should a Dental Crown Last?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically, dental crowns can be expected to protect and\nrestore teeth for between five and 15 years, according to several clinical\nstudies. Dentists hope for them to easily exceed the five-year mark, and they\noften can with the proper treatment and aftercare. However, they can fail due\nto damage, excessive wear and tear, and tooth decay. Many patients\u2019 crowns fail\ndue to preventable issues, so you\u2019ll be pleased to know that extending the\nlifespan of your restoration mostly falls into your hands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you visit a dentist who uses high-quality materials and\nhas ample restorative dentistry experience, this will increase the chances of\nyour crown remaining healthy and well-fitted for decades. The best way to do\nthis is to see if they use the latest dental technology in their practice and\nhave experience and advanced training in crafting restorations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Should You Care For Your Crown?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Without the proper maintenance, you can develop issues such\nas extreme tooth sensitivity, toothaches, and broken crowns. That\u2019s why it\u2019s\nimportant to be mindful of what you eat, your brushing and flossing technique,\nand keeping up with preventive dental care. Otherwise, your dental investment\nwon\u2019t last you as long as it potentially could. Here\u2019s what you can do to make\nsure you don\u2019t damage or lose your crown sooner than it\u2019s expected lifespan:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Treat conditions such as bruxism by getting a\ncustomized nightguard.<\/li><li>Stop bad oral habits that increase the amount of\nwear-and-tear on your teeth like nail-biting and chewing ice. <\/li><li>Immediately visit your dentist if you notice any\nout-of-ordinary symptoms. <\/li><li>Brush twice each day for two minutes using fluoride\ntoothpaste.<\/li><li>Rinse your mouth with antibacterial wash every\nday. <\/li><li>Floss daily. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>With the proper aftercare, you\u2019ll be able to get the most\nout of your dental investment and ensure that your mouth stays healthy for\nyears to come. When you visit your dentist every six months for your checkups\nand cleanings, they\u2019ll be able to inspect the restoration, make sure it doesn\u2019t\nexhibit signs of wear-and-tear or weakness, and make any repairs or necessary\nadjustments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Sol Brotman is a Master in the Academy of General\nDentistry and is one of few private practitioners who have passed the written\nexamination for Board Certification in General Dentistry.
