So, it\u2019s not surprising they are one of the most popular restorative treatments today. If you recently got one (or are planning to get one to restore a decayed or damaged tooth), then you may be wondering, \u201cWhat happens next?\u201d Keep reading to learn the answer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Expect After Getting a Dental Crown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After your dentist has addressed the decay or damage, they will protect your tooth with a dental crown. If your dental team doesn\u2019t utilize CEREC\u00ae one-visit crowns, then you\u2019ll be given a temporary one. If your dental team <em>does<\/em> utilize CEREC\u00ae one-visit crowns, then you won\u2019t have to return for any additional visits \u2013 your new and improved tooth is ready to go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In both scenarios, you\u2019ll likely feel some numbness in the hours following your appointment. Once that wears off, you may experience sensitivity to hot and cold foods and beverages. Don\u2019t worry \u2013 any discomfort you experience can be easily alleviated with an over-the-counter pain reliever and some rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Few Dos and Don\u2019ts To Keep in Mind Right After Your Appointment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following your appointment, there are a few dos and don\u2019ts you should keep in mind:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>DON\u2019T<\/strong> \u2013 Eat until the numbing agent wears off.<\/li><li><strong>DO<\/strong> \u2013 Stick to soft foods, like oatmeal, yogurt, and applesauce.<\/li><li><strong>DON\u2019T <\/strong>\u2013 Smoke or engage in other poor dental habits.<\/li><li><strong>DO<\/strong> \u2013 Keep an eye out for signs of an infection.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Keep Your Dental Crown in Pristine Condition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As previously mentioned, dental crowns can last for 15+ years with proper care. But what does \u201cproper care\u201d mean? Well, there are a few best practices you should implement to prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and other serious oral health concerns, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Getting a dental checkup and cleaning every six months<\/li><li>Brushing each morning and evening (or after each meal)<\/li><li>Flossing and rinsing with mouthwash consistently<\/li><li>Keeping your consumption of alcohol to a minimum<\/li><li>Eating mostly vitamin-rich, nutrient-dense meals<\/li><li>Exercising caution with extremely hard, sticky, and chewy foods<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Immediately following your appointment, you may experience some sensitivity. The good news is that this is usually short-lived and something that can be easily addressed with an over-the-counter pain reliever. Plus, a restored tooth and bite will make it all worth it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cerecuse.com\/\">Creative Dental Concepts<\/a>, we\u2019re proud to offer CEREC\u00ae same-day dental crowns.
