What Are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns are tooth-shaped coverings that are placed over the tooth to protect and restore the tooth’s strength, appearance, or form (to its normal size and shape) when fillings are ineffective. Crowns are also used to protect teeth that have had Root Canals or on teeth that have cracks.  If your tooth is weak, as a result of decay, dental crowns can serve the purpose of protecting the tooth from total damage. Crowns can also be used for cosmetic reasons.

Who Needs a Dental Crown?

Our dentist may recommend a dental crown if:

• You have a tooth cavity that is too large to fill.
• Your tooth has severely decayed, cracked, fractured, or weakened.
• Your tooth has a root canal that needs protection

How Do They Look?

Placing a crown can be a way to preserve the tooth. The end result is that it looks exactly like a tooth, and is matched to your other teeth.

Crowns can also be used for cosmetic reasons to enhance the size, color, shape, and position of your teeth.

How are dental crowns different from bridges?

Dental bridges are dental restoration devices that comprise of 2 or more crowns and are used mainly as a solution to replace missing teeth. A crown is installed if one tooth is damaged, whereas a bridge is installed if a tooth or teeth are missing. The bridge uses teeth on either side of the gap as anchors to hold in place the crowns that are meant to fill in the gap resulting from the missing teeth.
