I have been reading the information on the website about dental crowns and bridges and it is very clear and easy to comprehend so I am able to understand the whole procedure of making crowns and bridges but I am a bit confused about the temporary crowns and bridges. If possible, I would like to know how are the temporary crowns and temporary bridges made and what are they made of. Are they tooth coloured or are they made of metal or gold?
Thanking you in advance for your time
Hello Doctor, A front tooth broke recently and left just about an eight of the original tooth in my gum. This tooth had already had root canal work and I was so pleased to be told that a crown could be fitted. posts were screwed into the stub of the tooth and a tempory crown fitted. Today I went to have this removed and a permanent crown fitted. The dentist had a terrible job getting the tempory crown off and whereas this was very firmly fixed my permanent crown is moving. If the posts were dislodged whist removing the tempory crown can the one fitted now be removed and the posts secured.Thank you in advance
I had a temporary crown put on until my root canal is done. had my root canal done 1 month ago. All was good for 2 days then from the back molar which was the tooth work on to the center of my chin went numb, I went through 2 rounds of antibotics, I am still numb and my chin has intensed itching, I was told that SOMETIMES THE NUMBNESS HAPPEN BUT IT DOESN’T NORMALLY ITCH.And I don’t need my crown put on until this goes away which may take months. Am I that unnormal?
Today I had temporary crowns over my two front teeth. Is it customary to had these temp crowns joined together? It feels like I have something stuck between my teeth.
i have a temp cap on my molar i was suppose to get a root canal but i was pregnant at the time, i haven been wearing this temp crown since august and it just broke today now im getting that horrible pain. is there a home remedy i can do or do i need to see a dental guy?
I had veneers fitted on my two front teeth,due to sickness I had to keep the tempory veneers on for ten weeks in result that the tempories pushed the gum line back in two areas, now that my veneers are fitted I have a few spaces, between the teeth will my gum fall back into place when everything settles down?
Hi. When you have had root canal teatment, how long is left until the crown fittings? Then, is the tooth protected temporary? Thankyou
My tooth was broke at the front,i have had a tempory 1 that I like”t very much that changed coulour so i got it replaced. The problem is I had the new tooth fitted with temp bond and fell out and got lost, I dont mind that much cause I did,nt like the shape of the tooth.The way I want it is to made oversize and you take some of the surface until I am happy with the feel. Can you do this?
Hi,
I am in phase one of front teeth dental crowns. I have the temporay crowns and I am waiting for my permanet crowns. The shape of the temporay crowns seem to run on a angle up hill not straight across. Is this how my permanet ones will be
Hi Andrew, i am having a veneer, and the first ‘moulding’ appointment is in two weeks, this is where I’ve been told that they will shave my tooth and take a mould to be sent off.
i then have my ‘fitting’ appointment two weeks after that, so my question is, will i have to put up with a shaven tooth for two weeks?
I broke my tooth years ago, and occasionally it snaps now (which is why I’m having the veneer) and each time it snaps, to me it looks horrible
i don’t particularly want to have to put up with this for two weeks.
Many thanks
