Dental Crowns

In certain situations, dental crowns may be a better solution than porcelain veneers for the restoration badly decayed, discolored, cracked, or misshapen teeth. Instead of covering only the front area of each tooth, dental crowns cover the entire tooth. Dental crowns restore damaged teeth while adding strength and aesthetic enhancement.

There are many advantages to dental crowns. At our Raleigh practice, we often recommend dental crowns because they have a much longer life span than other methods, such as bonding. Dental crowns are also more resistant to stain and structural damage.

Before dental crowns can be placed, the tooth must be reduced in size to fit the new structure. You will receive a temporary crown while your permanent crown is being made. Your new crown will match your existing teeth so well that nobody will know you’re wearing a dental crown.
