Dental Crowns
A dental crown (or cap) is a covering that encases the entire tooth surface, restoring it to its original shape and size. A dental crown protects and strengthens tooth structure that cannot be restored with dental fillings or other types of restorations. Dr. Jayson C. Haws may recommend a dental crown to:
Restore broken or fractured Teeth
Make a cosmetic enhancement
Cover and repair decayed teeth
Repair fractured fillings
Protect a tooth with a large fillings
Support a tooth after root canal therapy
There are several different kinds of dental crowns. The most popular type of dental crowns are porcelain crowns, because they most resemble your natural teeth. Durable and strong, crowns are expected to last many years, but like most dental restorations, a dental crown may eventually need replacement. This is especially true when maltreatment of a dental crown has taken place. Porcelain crowns are made and customized in size, shape, and color to match your naturally grown teeth. This is done to restore full functionality to your teeth and to provide optimal cosmetic results for your smile
