A2: Depending upon the level of care and hygiene, it may last up to 10 - 15 years.

A3: Eating should be made easier with a dental crown as it increases your ability to chew. We suggest you start with a small bite of soft food to help you adjust the feel of your tooth.

Q4: Will dental crowns impact my speech?
A4: Your speech should improve as the teeth and tongue work together to help you articulate.

Q5: Can my dental crown become chipped over time?
