Restoring Damaged Teeth with Crowns
What Are Crowns?
Dentist Burlington
Crowns are custom-made dental restorations designed to encase a damaged or decayed tooth, providing strength, protection, and restoring its natural function. A crown covers the entire visible portion of the tooth, effectively protecting it from further damage and preserving its structure. Crowns are often used when a tooth is too damaged for a filling or when a large cavity compromises its strength. The process involves removing the decayed portion of the tooth and preparing the tooth to support the crown, which is then placed over it.
Crowns can be made from various materials, including porcelain, ceramic, or metal, and are designed to blend with your natural teeth for a seamless appearance. With proper care, crowns offer long-lasting protection and can restore the functionality and aesthetics of a damaged tooth, helping you maintain a healthy smile.
