Dental crowns are a common restorative dental treatment used by our dentist and team to restore damaged, decayed or weakened teeth. The crown is a cap that fits over the existing tooth, covering it entirely and providing additional strength and support.
Types of Dental Crowns
There are several types of dental crowns, including porcelain, ceramic, metal and composite resin. Each type has its unique benefits and drawbacks, but recent developments in dentistry have made non-mental crowns more durable, long-lasting and aesthetically appealing than ever. At our office, we offer our patients porcelain dental crowns for a seamless fix.
Benefits of Dental Crowns
Dental crowns have numerous benefits, including restoring the functionality of damaged teeth, improving the appearance of the teeth, and preventing further damage or decay. They can also improve the alignment of the teeth and correct bite issues.
Procedure for Dental Crowns
The procedure for getting a dental crown usually needs two visits to our office. During the first visit, our dentist will prepare the tooth, take impressions and place a temporary crown. In the second visit, the temporary crown is removed, and the permanent crown is cemented into place.
