The longevity of all restorations is varied based on the remaining tooth's structure and the ongoing home and professional care.
You care for your crown in the same way as we recommend caring for your teeth. If you don't already, make a habit of good brushing techniques twice and day and flossing once a day. It's also important to attend your routine cleans at your dentist's practice.
What Can I Eat with a Crown?
Your diet also has an impact. Your dentist in Baulkham Hills can discuss your dietary habits and their effects on teeth, fillings, crowns and inlays.
Another factor we might consider is if you habitually clench or grind your teeth. Again, there are many areas to consider, including your sleep and airway. If you have nighttime tooth grinding, sometimes an occlusal splint or night guard can be made to protect your teeth and restorations.
If that's the case, our dentist will advise you of that when you visit us for a consultation. If you do not protect your teeth from grinding, it's possible that the pressure could crack or break your dental crown.
