It all depends on the condition of the tooth and crown and the crown material. Sometimes it takes just a few minutes, other times it can take 10-15 minutes. Nothing much for the patient to worry about. It usually involves a bit of noise and vibration if the drill is necessary. It's a common procedure that shouldn't be too stressful. Dr. Conrad
It's pretty easy. Your dentist will use the dental handpiece to section the crown off. Then they can replace it. Hope that helps!
