Crowns
You may have heard the expression " I had my tooth crowned" or "The Dentist is going to put a Crown on my tooth." Just as it sounds, a Crown is a restoration that goes on top of your existing tooth. The purpose of a Crown is to rebuild and strengthen the tooth. To know if a Crown is required on a tooth it usually falls into six categories: A tooth that cannot be filled again, a weak tooth, a tooth that is excessively decayed or cracked, bite correction (occlusal changes) and teeth that can be straightened.
Crowns are made from either porcelain or gold. Gold is the strongest but porcelain looks the best. Click here for After Care Instructions
