You may need a dental crown for the following reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To hold a broken or fractured tooth together<\/li>\n<li>To protect a decayed tooth<\/li>\n<li>To restore a worn-down tooth<\/li>\n<li>To support a dental bridge<\/li>\n<li>To cover misshapen or discolored teeth<\/li>\n<li>To restore a dental implant<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If any of these examples sound familiar, contact your dentist right away!

Then, they will take impressions or molds of your smile that are sent off to a dental lab to create your crown. After a few weeks, you\u2019ll come back into the office to receive your restoration.<\/p>\n<h3>CEREC Same-Day Crowns<\/h3>\n<p>With CEREC, only one appointment is required! Your dentist will take 3D images of your teeth, which are wirelessly sent to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mydaytonadentist.com\/one-visit-restorations.html\">CEREC computer<\/a>.
