What Are Dental Crowns?
A dental crown is a dental treatment that aims to safeguard and enhance the strength of a tooth that is damaged or weakened. In cases where a tooth is cracked, broken, or has undergone a root canal, we may suggest the placement of a crown. By doing so, not only does the crown protect the tooth from additional harm, but it also enhances its overall appearance and structure. Typically, you can anticipate the crown to remain intact for several years before requiring replacement.
What is the purpose of dental crowns?
There are benefits to getting a new dental crown. It is needed when a tooth is cracked, fractured, broken, or after a root canal. A crown can also protect and restore a tooth with a large filling or decay.
Am I Qualified for Dental Crowns?
Our dentist will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth to assess the need for a crown. If it is determined that a crown is necessary, it is highly recommended to proceed with the treatment promptly in order to prevent any additional damage to the tooth. If you have an older crown that requires replacement, we can conveniently perform this procedure in our office at a time that suits your schedule. Our dental team is proficient in placing crowns on any tooth that requires restoration in your mouth.
