Is it painful to have a crown put on your tooth?
No. Your dentist should sufficiently anesthetize the tooth in order to shape the tooth properly and scan or take an impression to make the crown. Some crowns can be made while you wait while others will require several days to make in a dental lab. In those cases, a temporary crown will be made to protect your tooth. These are routine dental procedures and are usually pain free. READ MORE
