Dental crowns
A dental crown is placed over a tooth when it no longer has the strength to function on its own. Crowns help reinforce the structure, restore comfort, and create a natural-feeling bite. Many patients appreciate the reassurance that comes from knowing the tooth is protected moving forward.
Why is it
A crown may be recommended when a tooth has:
- A large or failing filling
- Deep decay
- Cracks or fractures
- Significant wear
- Completed root canal therapy
What To Expect
Treatment typically includes:
- Examining the tooth and reviewing imaging
- Shaping the tooth so the crown fits securely
- Taking a digital scan for precise design
- Wearing a temporary crown while the final one is made
- Fitting and adjusting the permanent crown
