Dental crowns are lab made and tooth-shaped can be placed over a tooth. Your dentist prepares the tooth and takes an impression or digitally scan the final preparation to be sent to a dental laboratory. The dental crown is cemented into place on your tooth and it covers the visible portion of the tooth.
The average lifespan for a well-maintained dental crown could be years. However, when taken care of, it is common to see them last a life time.
