Dental crowns, also referred to as caps, are known for their versatility in dental restoration. When a tooth is severely damaged or decayed, a dental crown can be created to fit over the entire tooth after the tooth has been thoroughly cleaned and treated. The crown starts at your gumline and restores the tooths original size and shape. Though purely porcelain crowns are popular because of the way they match the color and appearance of your natural teeth, dental crowns can also be made with gold or porcelain fused to metal. Our dentist will meet with you to discuss which kind of dental crown you prefer.
A dental crown can be used to address a number of dental issues, whether your tooth is damaged or decayed beyond what a filling can restore or is being used for cosmetic purposes. Crowns can be used to:
- Address a misshaped tooth
- Enhance the natural beauty of your smile
- Complete a dental implant
- Anchor a dental bridge
- Strengthen a fractured or weak tooth
- Support a large filling
- Protect a tooth after a root canal treatment
