Dental Crowns

A dental crown, also known as a cap, is a protective covering that encases the entire surface of a tooth, restoring its shape, size, and strength. When a tooth is damaged, fractured, or severely decayed, a crown provides a durable and long-lasting solution that enhances both function and appearance.

Among the different types of crowns available, porcelain crowns are the most popular due to their natural look, durability, and ability to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth. With proper care, crowns can last for many years, though like all dental restorations, they may eventually need replacement.

Common reasons for getting a dental crown include:



• Protecting broken or fractured teeth
• Enhancing the appearance of a damaged tooth
• Restoring decayed teeth that cannot support a filling
• Covering large fillings to prevent further damage
• Strengthening a tooth after a root canal
