Does my health history affect whether I can have a crown?+
It is part of what the dentist considers, along with the tooth itself. Share your history fully, and ask directly whether anything in it changes how your crown would be planned.
Which medications should I mention?+
Mention all of them, including non-prescription products and supplements. You do not have to know which are relevant, as the dentist can follow up about any that matter.
Can you talk to my doctor about my treatment?+
Ask this during your assessment. Your dentist can tell you whether any information from your physician would be useful in your case and how to go about providing it.
What if I find it hard to sit through long appointments?+
Tell the clinic when you book and again before treatment starts. Ask about the expected length, and let the dentist know what would help, such as pausing for a break.
Is local anesthetic used for everyone?+
It is normally used during crown preparation. If you have had a reaction before, or have a concern about it, bring that up before the appointment so it can be discussed.
