dental crowns

Over time, our teeth endure a lot of wear and tear. That can make them susceptible to damage. Luckily, high-quality dental crowns can keep teeth strong!

What are Dental Crowns?

A dental crown is a small cap that goes over a damaged tooth. This damage can vary from a small crack to a cavity that is too large for a filling. Crowns can be made out of an array of material, but zirconia-alumina is a popular option for a natural-looking restoration. A crown is custom-made to reshape your tooth and match the rest of your smile.

Why Do I Need a Dental Crown?

Our dentist may recommend a crown in a variety of situations. They include but aren’t limited to:
  • Cracked tooth
  • Worn down/weakened enamel
  • Dental implant restoration
  • Post-root canal treatment
  • Cavity that is too large for a filling
  • Conceal a poorly-shaped tooth

How to Care for a Dental Crown

For the most part, you can treat your dental crown as you would any tooth. This means that you should brush and floss it every single day. However, you will want to avoid extremely hard foods, like ice. Lastly, be sure to visit our office for regular cleanings!
