Crowns

When it comes to a major restoration or replacement of a tooth, your dental expert may speak with you about choosing a crown or cap. Depending on the location of the tooth, this is a great option to restore your natural smile. A crown is a type of dental restoration which completely caps or encircles a tooth or dental implant. They are often used when a large cavity threatens the ongoing health of a tooth.

They are typically bonded to the tooth using a dental cement, and can be made from many materials, most often porcelain. The most common method of crowning a tooth involves using a dental impression of a prepared tooth and then fabricating the crown outside of the mouth. The crown can then be inserted at a subsequent dental appointment.
