Although it seems like dental crowns don’t require a great deal of attention once they are in place, this is not the case. At Eggleston Dental Care in Turlock, CA we provide all patients with the full details about dental crowns aftercare, and also offer them here to be sure you can enjoy the best results after your treatment.

You might hear a tooth needs a crown because it has a failed filling and is too weak to be treated with another filling. You might have a crown as part of a root canal, because you had a dental implant or even as part of a cosmetic treatment.

The day of treatment, your tooth may be tender and you will want to avoid hot and cold drinks and even avoid using the crown. You must pay attention to the feel of it and report to our office if there is pain, a feeling of too much “height” when closing your mouth, or other issues.
Your dental crown is also not impervious to damage, and you should exercise the same caution that you do for natural teeth. Don’t chew on hard things, use the tooth to tear or twist open a hard object, or put it under undue pressures or wear.
