Sedation for Dental Crowns?
You should go in to get your crowns put in as soon as possible. I'm a dental assistant, and I can tell you that the longer you wait to have the those crowns put on, the higher the chances your temporary crown will crack and the higher the possibility the tooth will get infected again. Then you would definitely need to be sedated again.





Usually, you will need to have a crown prep procedure done before the actual crown is placed on the tooth. For that procedure, you will need to be numbed, so the dentist can adjust the tooth, take an impression, and send it out for the actual crown.





The good news is, it does not hurt to get crowns put on, and you do not have to be sedated. The dentist will just try on the crown and adjust it so it feels okay when you bite down, and then he'll cement it on.
Reply:You had root canals and you're worried about them placing on crowns? That makes no sense. Talk with your dentist.
