Dental crowns<\/a> are highly durable, and they can often last a long time provided that they receive good maintenance. That said, all dental crowns need to be replaced eventually. As such, you need to be familiar with the warning signs of a dental crown that has run its course so that you can get a new one in the near future. Here are 4 possible indicators that it\u2019s time to replace your crown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

1. The Crown Has Suffered from Noticeable Wear and Tear<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Like your natural teeth, your dental crown will have to endure the pressures of biting and chewing on a daily basis. This means that it will gradually become worn down over time. And if you grind your teeth (and don\u2019t take the right steps to address the problem), the restoration may wear down even faster. Your dentist can let you know whether the wear on your crown is extensive enough to warrant a replacement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. The Crown Has Been Damaged in Some Way<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Despite their durability, dental crowns can still potentially be damaged. If a crown is chipped or cracked badly enough, replacing it may be the only option. That said, it is sometimes possible to simply repair it. It\u2019s best to ask a dentist to examine your crown as soon as possible; once they\u2019ve had a chance to look at the damage, they can let you know whether a new crown is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. There is a Problem with the Crown\u2019s Appearance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes you may wish to have a dental crown replaced for aesthetic reasons. For example, some crowns are made out of materials that closely resemble natural tooth enamel. While such crowns are often stain-resistant, it\u2019s not unheard of for them to become discolored, which can make them eye-catching for all the wrong reasons. If you are unhappy with the way your crown looks, oftentimes the best solution is to trade it for a new one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. The Crown is Very Old<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The older your crown is, the more likely you are to need a replacement. Of course, this can vary from case to case; plenty of crowns manage to last for 15 years or even longer. Nevertheless, if you have had your crown for a very long time, you should make a point of visiting your dentist regularly so that they can check whether it\u2019s still in good condition or nearing the end of its lifespan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s essential to keep a close eye on your dental crown so that you can take note of any changes. That way, you can be proactive about having it replaced when necessary in order to ensure that your tooth continues to enjoy quality protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
