How long will a Dental Crown last?

Dental crowns have a long life and can easily last for 10-15 years or more. With proper care, dental crowns can last for more than 15 years. The life of a dental crown depends upon its wear and tear. Constantly chewing hard food, grinding or clenching your teeth and maintaining poor oral hygiene can cause damage to the crown and the underlying tooth. Dentists recommend to brush, floss and rinse your mouth with an antibacterial mouthwash twice every day to maintain your crown. 

Crowns are mostly used after a root canal procedure. In a root canal procedure, the dentists drill through the tooth and remove infected and decayed regions of the enamel, dentin, and pulp. Since the root canal procedure involves removing the pulp, the treated tooth no longer functions as a living thing. This can cause weakening of the tooth and is susceptible to fractures. A dental crown is placed over the treated tooth to provide support and prevent fracture of the tooth.
