FAQs
Does getting a crown hurt?
Most patients report zero pain! We use:
- 1. Topical gel
- 2. Local anesthesia
Can crowns be whitened?
No – they’re stain-resistant. We recommend whitening natural teeth first, then matching crowns to the new shade.
What if my crown comes loose?
contact us for re-cementation. Never use household glue!
