The process of creating a crown involves multiple steps and typically takes between 7 and 10 days.
The phases of crown preparation are:
- Stage I: The tooth is shaped by grinding to prepare it for the crown placement.
- Stage II: We take an impression, choose the color and material for the crown, and place a temporary crown while the permanent one is being made. This temporary crown covers the prepared tooth and helps maintain good aesthetic appearance.
- Stage III: The crown is manufactured in a prosthodontic laboratory.
- Stage IV: Permanently cementing the crown with a special bonding material.
