What Are Porcelain Crowns?
A porcelain crown is a custom-made tooth-shaped cap that covers a damaged or weakened tooth. Crowns restore the tooth’s shape, size, strength, and appearance, protecting it from further damage and enhancing your smile.
Crowns are commonly used for:
- Severely decayed teeth
- Broken or cracked teeth
- Teeth that have undergone root canal therapy
- Worn or misshapen teeth
- Cosmetic enhancement for discolored or uneven teeth
Who Is a Candidate for Porcelain Crowns?
Porcelain crowns are recommended for patients with teeth that require both functional and aesthetic restoration.
Severely Damaged or Decayed Teeth
When a tooth cannot be effectively restored with a filling, a crown provides strength and protection.
Root Canal Treated Teeth
Teeth that have undergone root canal therapy are more fragile and benefit from full coverage with a crown.
Cracked or Worn Teeth
Crowns restore the shape and function of teeth that have been cracked, worn, or damaged from bruxism or trauma.
Cosmetic Enhancement
Porcelain crowns can improve the appearance of teeth that are severely discolored or misshapen.
