For example, they often wonder how long their dental crown will last. Read on to learn more about its anticipated longevity!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Long Do Dental Crowns Last?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The answer to this question can vary from person to person based on your unique circumstances. That said, it\u2019s safe to say that dental crowns usually last anywhere from 3 to 15 years. A few different factors can influence its lifespan, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Teeth Grinding<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you suffer from bruxism, or teeth grinding, then you\u2019re more likely to break your restoration. The frequent or constant pressure exerted by clenching your pearly whites together can wear it down prematurely. As a result, it\u2019s more vulnerable to chips, cracks, and fractures. Plus, you\u2019re likely to erode your enamel unevenly, which can cause dental problems in your natural teeth, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, your dentist can provide you with a custom-fitted nightguard to protect your grin at night, so you\u2019re less likely to have any issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Its Location<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Teeth in the back of your mouth are more prone to injury than front ones because they play a crucial role in chewing your food. You apply more chewing force on your molars to sufficiently pulverize your meal so it can be more easily digested. Therefore, a dental crown placed in the back of your mouth is more likely to be harmed than one in the front.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, it\u2019s harder to reach them during your daily dental hygiene routine, so the underlying teeth are more likely to develop decay. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Its Purpose<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental crowns are often used to restore a wounded tooth but can also be used to anchor a dental bridge or cap a dental implant. If yours is covering a pearly white that\u2019s already sustained structural damage, then it\u2019s more likely to require repairs or replacement down the road. This is simply because the tooth it\u2019s covering is more likely to erode eventually because it\u2019s already been compromised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your Oral Hygiene Habits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s possible for your dental crown to last 15+ years, but only if it\u2019s properly maintained. You should brush and floss your teeth twice daily to remove any plaque and bacteria buildup that contribute to cavities and gum disease. Also, it\u2019s a good idea to visit your dentist every 6 months for a checkup so they can ensure your mouth and your restoration stay in good shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you care for your teeth consistently, there\u2019s a good chance your dental crown can last a decade or longer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. S.
