If you\u2019ve never had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lakelanddentalcare.net\/restorative-dentistry.html\">this procedure<\/a> before, you likely don\u2019t know what to expect from it. You could easily be nervous enough to ask a big question: \u201cDoes getting a dental crown hurt?\u201d Well, you\u2019re in luck \u2013 your Jackson dentist can address this worry of yours. Here\u2019s why crown treatment is painless, recovery can involve soreness, and delaying care causes pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting a Dental Crown Is Painless<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A dental crown treatment takes two appointments. The first is a \u201cprep visit\u201d that readies your tooth for its restoration. In contrast, the second session is when your crown is placed. Neither dental visit should cause you any pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prep Visit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before anything else, the dentist will prep you for your crown. This work requires that they remove some of the tooth\u2019s enamel. (Doing so helps the restoration fit well.) Thankfully, the removal process isn\u2019t painful. The dentist will numb your mouth before it starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the removal work, your dentist will take a dental impression. Lab workers use this mold to make your final crown. Still, getting the impression won\u2019t hurt either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Crown Placement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At the follow-up visit, your dentist will bond the crown to your tooth. This step shouldn\u2019t hurt \u2013 &nbsp;your tooth will be numbed for it as well. In fact, the numbing effect will likely last until you return home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The dental team will make some adjustments to the crown once it\u2019s placed. However, these changes are so minor that you won\u2019t even feel them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recovery May Involve Soreness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While the crown treatment itself is painless, you may feel sore after it\u2019s done. That\u2019s only natural \u2013 the anesthesia will eventually wear off and your tooth will have a different shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, this soreness should fade quickly. It ought to be gone after a few days. If it persists longer or you have a bite issue post-treatment, contact your dental team at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Delaying Treatment is Painful<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Honestly, it\u2019s painful to delay a dental crown. Putting off this crucial dental work will worsen your tooth damage. From there, the damaged area could get chipped, cracked, or suffer an urgent oral issue. You\u2019d then be far more likely to have tooth sensitivity and intense pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, a crown procedure reduces your pain. The placed dental cap will protect your tooth from further harm. That way, you can avoid an unwelcome root canal or tooth extraction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, does getting a dental crown hurt? No \u2013 it\u2019ll stop and prevent oral pain. You should thus see your dentist for this vital treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lakelanddentalcare.net\/\">Lakeland Dental Care<\/a> is based in Jackson, Mississippi.
