Crown Bridge & Veneers
Dental Crowns
A dental crown is a covering that covers an existing tooth. People often refer to them as caps. It aesthetically improves the way a broken or heavily decayed tooth appears.
A crown also is much stronger and lasts longer than a plastic restoration.
Crowns can be made of precious metals like gold, porcelain or the latest style Zirconia.
Dental crowns can be used to cover a severely broken or decayed tooth when too much of the original tooth is missing.
This may include:
- After root canal treatment to reinforce the the tooth
