Dental crowns are versatile tooth restorations. The protective cap encases the entire visible portion of the tooth to improve its strength, size and appearance.
Crowns are used for broken or decayed teeth that can no longer be fixed with dental fillings. Dental crown materials can be made of metal, full ceramic, or composite. The material used will depend on the reason you are getting the crown.
Whether you decide on a dental crown for improving the shape and alignment of your teeth or for strengthening a tooth, the procedure for the treatment is the same. A dental crown requires only two appointments. The first appointment involves the preparation of the tooth, and the second is for fitting the crown.
