Restoring Smiles with Functional and Natural-looking Dental Crowns

A dental crown is a custom-designed dental appliance fitted over the tooth to improve its function and appearance. A dental crown helps you fix your tooth without removing it, ensuring a stable and secure restoration.

How a Dental Crown Restores Your Smile

While dental crowns are small, they have numerous functional and cosmetic uses in dentistry. Your dentist can recommend a dental crown to resolve the dental issues below.

• Strengthening a weakened tooth: While your teeth are resilient, they can be damaged by dental trauma, tooth grinding, and decay. A dental crown encapsulates your tooth to reinforce and protect it from further damage. 
• Covering a dental implant: An implant involves inserting a titanium post in the jawbone to act as a tooth root. Once the titanium post fuses with the bone, the dentist places a natural-looking crown to restore your smile’s beauty and function.
• Securing a dental bridge: A traditional bridge is a custom-made false tooth anchored between two adjacent teeth using crowns. 
• Protecting a tooth after root canal therapy: A root canal dentist treats your tooth by removing the diseased pulp tissue. As a result, this leaves the tooth structurally weakened and needing reinforcement. A dental filling can restore a root-canaled tooth, but it needs a dental crown if it is severely weakened.

A dental crown in our office is placed in at least two dental visits. The first appointment is the most involving, where the dentist prepares your tooth by shaving a bit of the enamel. Then, we make impressions of the tooth and your bite, which are the blueprint for creating your crown. The second appointment is where the dentist places the permanent crown to restore your smile.
