When a tooth or teeth is too badly decayed, broken, or cracked to be restored with a filling, a crown is recommended. Crowns are usually required for teeth that have undergone root canal therapy. Crowns can also be used to replace missing teeth on dental implants.
For strength and beauty, crowns can be made entirely of gold or porcelain fused to a gold substrate. Crowns can now be made entirely of high-strength ceramic and porcelain thanks to advances in technology.
Your new crown will improve your overall health and confidence for years to come if properly cared for.
