A crown (or cap) is a covering
that encases the entire tooth surface restoring it to its original
shape and size. Porcelain crowns are made to match the shape, size,
and color or your teeth giving you a natural, long-lasting
beautiful smile. Crowns can protect and strengthen tooth structure
that cannot be restored with fillings or other types of
restorations.In some cases, our doctors
can prep and deliver crown restorations in one visit using state of
the art CAD/CAM technology. In other cases our doctors create
models and have the crowns custom fabricated at a professional
dental laboratory to the exact specifications to meet your
needs.
