Crown on the tooth: how to put, does it hurt to put

The absence of a tooth or even a few teeth is not a verdict now.It is possible to install a crown, another prosthesis.The crown can be installed to restore a particular tooth or to secure the attachment of another prosthesis, which is designed to recreate a whole series.This is necessary not only to preserve the aesthetic appearance, but also to properly distribute the masticatory function, otherwise the balance may be disturbed, which threatens the loosening and displacement of adjacent teeth.

Prosthetic stages

Everyone who needs to undergo the prosthetic process is interested in the question of how the crown is put on the tooth, how painful this process is.An expert can answer the question, with a detailed examination of the specific situation.Much depends on the features of the development of the disease.

The procedure is rather complicated and includes several phases:

1. Consultation, primary research, development of treatment strategy, choice of the kind of crowns.
2. Preparatory stage.
3. Impression molding, production of the device.
4. Fitting, installation.

1. An X-ray is mandatory. The doctor then determines the degree of the disease on the basis of the data obtained, determines the treatment strategy, because there is a list of cases when the crowns are placed on the teeth.When coordinated with the patient, the color, material, and type of prosthesis are selected.Then the preparation for the procedure begins, this is a responsible, important stage.

2. First, all carious teeth are treated, plaque, tartar removed, prosthetics performed in the absence of patient teeth.
3. The pulp is removed or remains intact, depending on which tooth is exposed.When recovering a single root, the risk of a pulp burn is great, so it is better to remove it.If the chewing tooth is turned, the pulp is sometimes left, because the risk of burns is much lower.Turning( pre-treatment, including the removal of hard tissues to install the crown) lasts about an hour, local anesthesia is used.

How the decontamination process is carried out

The depopulation is performed in the following order:

• the nerve is first removed;
• root canals are prepared in a special way, expand;
• the coronal part is sealed.

Corner part restoration process

There are two ways to do this, using a pin or using tabs.

1. The pin is manufactured from a variety of biocompatible materials, which are now represented by various alloys.It is a rod that fits into the root canal of the tooth.There it is securely attached and with the use of special materials, a restoration is made.
   The pin can be used not always, there are contraindications, such as blood diseases, periodontal tissues and some others.
2. The culture tab is a reliable base, it is also used for fixing other types of prostheses.It consists of two parts, the leg is inserted into the root, and the body serves to restore the lost part of the tooth.

Grinding process and laboratory stage

It is in connection with the need for this process that the question usually arises whether it is painful to put a crown on the tooth.Treatment of tooth with pulp is really painful.When the tooth is prepared without a nerve, the gums are affected, which also creates an extremely unpleasant sensation in the patient.Therefore, the effects are only made with local anesthesia.If you plan to install metal structures, you need to sew more fabric, this must be taken into account when choosing a material.Obtachka is necessary, because without this, it will be impossible to put the crown.The tissue is removed by a layer equal to the width of the crown, this shape is given, which ensures a secure fit of the crown.

After completion of the grinding process, the dentist makes molds of teeth to make prostheses based on them.First they are transferred to the laboratory, where gypsum copies are made, on the basis of which the crowns themselves are made.

The choice of the material of the prosthesis depends on when the crown is placed on the tooth.A dentist may advise the use of a particular alloy depending on physical, clinical indications.For the front teeth it is preferable to use ceramics, as it reproduces the color of the enamel well.

For the period of manufacturing the prosthesis a temporary device is used to protect the tooth and prevent the penetration of the infection.

Final stage and installation

Installation of the prosthesis is performed in several stages:

1. The fitting of the design is mandatory.This is done in order to determine the density of planting, the quality of the prosthesis.
2. Then a temporary installation is applied.This is done in order to determine how the use of the prosthesis affects the occlusion, how the tooth reacts to the installation of the structure.If there are any shortcomings, the product can be easily removed and fixed all defects.Testing the device continues for several weeks to exclude the appearance of any unpleasant sensations in the patient during further use.
3. The final step is fixation to permanent cement.

It should be noted that it may be necessary to replace the crown in some cases.If the work is done qualitatively, then the replacement of the crown will take several years, since the product has its own service life.

Crowns: photos before and after

Removal of the crown is necessary in the following cases:

• the pain under the crown occurs.It is necessary to establish the cause of unpleasant sensations, perhaps the pieces of used materials or cysts were left in the canal, these shortcomings should be eliminated:
• if the crown is not tight enough, there are other defects that are detected by the dentist during examination, they must also be eliminated;
• if there are chips, cracks, there are other damages to the prosthesis.

Patients often wonder whether crowns are placed on wisdom teeth.These teeth often have large carious lesions, since it is not very convenient for them to take care of, to clean.Dentists often advise them to simply remove, especially if the wisdom teeth are already hit hard enough.Treatment is too time consuming and expensive.Consultation of the dentist before the manufacture of prosthetics is required in any case.
