When your tooth requires a complete or partial coverage of the tooth structure to protect it, either a full coverage crown, inlay or outlay may be needed. How long the tooth crown lasts is explained below.

While your dentist always wants to provide you with restorative procedures that last you a long time, virtually no procedure can really be considered “permanent” in dentistry. Crowns and inlays/onlays will last between five and fifteen years on average, but this is mostly dependent on the amount of stress they endure and the ‘patient’s oral hygiene. With proper care, crowns, inlays, and onlays can last a lifetime.
