A Crown covers the entire tooth, fitting snuggly at the gum and protecting what remains of the natural tooth. Crowns may be the best option for patients suffering from significant decay and a crown is required to support the filling or when a tooth is severely cracked or broken and is in danger of cracking to the root.
Crowns serve two important functions within the mouth. Firstly, Crowns restore the appearance of the affected tooth, enabling you to recapture your smile and facial appearance. Secondly, Crowns created to the same size and shape of your existing tooth – will keep your jaw and bite aligned. Crowns prevent further deterioration within the mouth
During the Crown process, porcelain is chosen in accordance to your existing tooth color. Porcelain Crowns are so carefully matched in color to your existing teeth, that they cannot be distinguished by the naked eye. Crowns are an excellent restoration technique, which may be implemented to provide aesthetic improvement or to strengthen and rebuild teeth.
