Yes, Dr. Koch provides emergency dental crown services in Cary. If your dental crown breaks or falls out, call our office right away to schedule an appointment. We'll work to see you as quickly as possible to restore your tooth and relieve any discomfort.
Advanced Technology for Precise Results
Our practice uses digital technology that allows us to address crown emergencies efficiently. We use the 3Shape TRIOS 4 and iTero Lumina™ intraoral scanners to capture precise digital impressions of your teeth without messy traditional molds. These scanners create highly accurate 3-D images in minutes, ensuring a precise fit for your new crown.
With AI-driven design technology, we can design your crown the same day and send it off to a custom dental lab for fabrication. In the meantime, we’ll provide a temporary crown to protect the prepared tooth while we wait for your final crown.
What to Do If Your Crown Falls Out
If your crown comes off, try to keep it safe and avoid chewing on that side of your mouth. Rinse the area gently with warm water. Don't try to reattach the crown yourself using OTC dental cement, as this can cause additional damage.
Call our Cary, NC, dental office at (919) 859-6633 right away, so we can get you on our schedule. Dr. Koch will examine the crown to see if we can recement it in place or if he recommends a new crown to protect the tooth for the long term.
