Bring Back Your Confident Smile With Porcelain Crowns
Having crooked, chipped, and stained teeth can hamper your confidence and make you self-conscious about your smile. Thankfully, there are ways to fix these issues and bring back your self-esteem. Porcelain crowns, dental inlays, or dental caps are some of these cosmetic solutions.
Dr. Wilhite in Plano, TX can expertly fit you with a tooth crown to give you your smile back. Book an appointment today!
What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown, distinct from an inlay, serves as a cap that covers your entire tooth, meticulously designed to mimic the appearance and function of a natural tooth. Crowns are commonly required following a root canal treatment to protect the restored tooth, and they are also used to cover an implant that replaces a missing tooth, ensuring a natural and cohesive look.
Most dental crowns last for a long time since they’re made of sturdy and resistant material. In some cases, they can even be shaped to improve your bite and the overall function of your mouth. A permanent crown is made to match the color of your natural teeth, so the cap looks real and indistinguishable
How many visits to get crowns?
Only three visits to Dr. Wilhite’s dental office are needed to apply porcelain crowns, inlays, or onlays.
During the first visit, your teeth are examined and evaluated to determine if you are a candidate for porcelain crowns, inlays, or onlays.
During the second visit, we make a mold of your teeth to ensure accurate size and shaped tooth coverings. Finally, during the third visit, we apply the permanent porcelain crowns, inlays, or inlays.
You will get to walk out from the third appointment with your new, improved smile.
Types of Dental Crowns
At the Dental Office of Dr. Wilhite, we specialize in porcelain crowns. This composite looks and feels like the real thing. However, there are other options for those who’d like other types of dental crowns.
Benefits of Porcelain Crowns From David H. Wilhite, DDS, MAGD
Maximum Durability
The material used in crowns is extremely strong, meaning you can use your maximum bite force. Plus, they have long lifespans, so you won’t need to visit the dentist as often.
Natural Looking Teeth
Each crown is color-matched to your natural tooth color after cleaning for a realistic appearance.
Teeth Protection
Our crowns protect the inner layers of your teeth from further issues.
Why Choose Dr. Wilhite?
With decades of experience and advanced training in cosmetic dentistry, Dr. Wilhite is known for his attention to detail and commitment to patient satisfaction. He takes the time to understand your goals and deliver exceptional results with cutting-edge techniques.
Dr. Wilhite is amazing. I have gone to many dentists in my 40 years but none have helped me the way he has. He takes time to do things right and is knowledgeable about things you would think only your medical doctor would know about. If you want a truly healthy mouth, not just clean, Dr. Wilhite is the dentist to go to. I recommend him to everyone I know. Plus, his hygienists and staff are super friendly. I have been coming here for years and won't be changing until he retires!
Dr. Wilhite and his staff are amazing! They have taken care of my teeth (and my husband's) for over 10 years, and we wouldn't go anywhere else. His staff is extremely patient and courteous, and Dr. Wilhite always takes the time to explain both what he is doing and why. When I needed extensive dental work right after the birth of our daughter, Dr. Wilhite and his staff were extremely supportive and attentive throughout the entire process. As they do in all situations, they went the extra mile in that case to make sure that they coordinated with my doctor so that the medications they provided wouldn't cause negative side effects for me or our newborn. Dr. Wilhite and his team made sure I was as comfortable as possible during the entire experience, and I couldn't be more please with the way my smile turned out!
Dr. Wilhite and his wonderful staff have helped me and my family maintain the best possible dental health. For me, I finally decided to wear braces and get my bite corrected and, with a few needed maintenance procedures, can say that my teeth and gums have never been in better shape (at +60 years old, that is a blessing).We always feel like members of a family when we come in. The staff is so personal and welcoming. Good dental health is a journey. Dr. Wilhite and his staff are there for us ever step of the way.
