Traditional Treatment Timeline

Here is what you can expect when undergoing dental crown treatment at our Altamonte Springs dentist's office.
Crowns not only enhance the appearance of your smile, but they reinforce a structurally damaged tooth.
Crowns not only enhance the appearance of your smile, but they reinforce a structurally damaged tooth.

Tooth Preparation

Your dentist prepares the tooth by removing built-up plaque, decay, and bacterial infection. For some patients, treatment may involve additional procedures such as a root canal.

Impressions

Your dentist takes impressions of your teeth and gums so we can design and craft a custom dental crown. Dr. Schmitt is highly detail-oriented, taking precise digital x-rays to improve your experience and outcome.

Fabrication

To protect your prepared tooth, our dentist will place a temporary crown while the permanent crown is crafted. You will wear your temporary crown for a couple of weeks while a master ceramicist crafts your new dental crown from porcelain or zirconia.

Placement

Once complete, you will return to our office so your dentist can remove the temporary crown and check the color and fit of your permanent crown. Dr. Schmitt can make any necessary adjustments before securing the crown in place with dental cement.

Premium Implant-Supported Crowns

Dr. Schmitt can treat patients with missing teeth in the Altamonte Springs and greater Orlando, FL, region with top-of-the-line dental implants. You may qualify for dental implants if you:

Are missing teeth or need an extraction

While saving the natural tooth is always preferable, in certain cases, the structure is too severely damaged to support a traditional crown. Implant-supported crowns are the best option to replace teeth, restoring the natural appearance and function of your smile. 

Are healthy and want to maintain your oral health

Implants involve oral surgery and are only recommended for non-smokers in good health. If you qualify, implants will benefit your long-term oral health by preserving your bone density and facial appearance.

Are looking for a long-term solution and savings

The implant posts become a permanent fixture in your mouth, giving you a highly durable and long-lasting solution for tooth loss. While they are more expensive up-front, they will require fewer replacements over the years and can save patients money over the course of a lifetime. 

See How Implant-Supported Crowns Can Enhance Your Smile

The implant-supported crown comprises three parts- the titanium post, abutment piece, and restoration. For single implant procedures, a crown is placed as your restoration.

Dental Implants
Our office does not place dental implants but can restore a broken implant and refer new patients to a credible dentist who can place implants.

Needing to get a crown, my dentist recommended Schmitt Prosthedontics. Dr. Schmitt's work was excellent, and I have always trusted my teeth (and my family's) to his care for many years. Today, he replaced a missing tooth and the care and concern today has been consistently present through all the years.

My experiences with Dr. Schmitt and his staff have always been nothing but stellar. From routine cleanings by his caring and compassionate hygienists to having 6 crowns put on, Dr. Schmitt is not only highly skilled but also takes dental "arts" to a new level. My smile is proof of it. I highly recommend him!!!
