If one or more of your teeth has been damaged or otherwise weakened, dental crowns may offer a simple and effective treatment to restore a healthy tooth! Versatile in usage, a dental crown is commonly placed to strengthen a tooth that has been affected by decay, or to anchor a dental bridge during treatment to replace a missing tooth. These restorations can feel like a natural part of your mouth and — unlike the metal crowns utilized in the past — they often appear indistinguishably among your surrounding teeth. Thanks to the resemblance of dental porcelain to natural tooth enamel, crowns from our cosmetic dentist can offer aesthetic benefits in addition to improving biting function.
