Simply put, nothing lasts "forever." There are a lot of factors that go into the survivability of a dental crown. One must first remember the environment our teeth are in. Your teeth are constantly submerged, most often in an acidic environment, and biting forces are placed on them 1000+ times a day. The better one's bite is balanced, the better the fit of the crown, the better materials used, the better the dentist, the better the home care of the patient, all leads to a longer lasting crown. With all that being said, studies have shown crowns last anywhere between 10-15 years.

The American Dental Association (ADA) and most dentists will recommend you have your teeth cleaned at least twice per year. This is to ensure plaque build up does not occur as well as catch any problems, such as tooth decay, early!

I believe in whole health dentistry and the mouth is the gateway to the body!
