A crown (or cap) is a covering that will cover or encases
the entire tooth surface hence restoring it to its
original shape and size. A crown not only protects your tooth but also strengthens tooth structure that cannot
be restored with fillings or other types of
restorations.
Although several types of crowns are availale and used in dental industry, At Healthy Smiles Dental we prefer porcelain crowns as they they can be matched with exisiting teeth colors and their highly durable nature.
Typically a crown will last several years, but like most dental restorations,
they may eventually need to be replaced. Porcelain
crowns are made to match the shape, size,
and color or your teeth giving you a natural,
long-lasting beautiful smile.
