Rebuild Your Weak Teeth With Dental Crowns in Valdosta

Have you ever heard the saying, “Teeth matter; don’t take them for granted”? If you haven’t and you’ve become impacted with decayed or damaged teeth, it’s not the end of the world when dental crowns in Valdosta, GA, can help. Our smile-focused team, alongside Dr. Hester, has been dedicated to restoring patient smiles for several years with this procedure!

What Are Dental Crowns And What Value Do They Bring?

At Brett Hester, DMD, we offer patients same-day dental crowns using CEREC technology, which can prepare and manufacture your restoration in a single visit for ultimate convenience. Dr. Hester uses computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) technologies to measure key aspects of your mouth during your dental crown appointment. The digital data is then sent to an in-house milling machine, which can create your custom porcelain crown while you wait.

If you’re seeking a long-lasting restoration solution, crowns can last for about 10 years or longer with the right maintenance.

Treatment Process Explained

• Tooth Preparation: In order for your custom crown to fit snugly in place, part of your tooth's outer structure must be carefully removed. Dr. Hester will remove the outer layer of enamel after numbing your tooth and, if necessary, putting you to sleep with nitrous oxide.
• Digital Information: Our doctor uses Primescan to take digital impressions and capture detailed pictures of your tooth to enhance patient experience and comfort. A specialized milling machine will receive the digital data and create your crown while you wait.
• Crown Completion: One of the main advantages of same-day dental crowns is that they do not involve temporary crowns. Your personalized and complete crown will be ready in about an hour. Dr. Hester will make sure it fits over your prepared tooth snugly and matches your natural teeth!

Who Is A Candidate For This Restoration?

Anyone with a tooth or teeth that are damaged, discolored, or misshapen may be a good candidate for a dental crown. This restoration can also benefit individuals looking for a natural-looking replacement for their weakened tooth and are willing to prioritize routine dental checkups and practice good oral hygiene.
