What Do They Do?

Porcelain crowns are used to restore teeth that have been compromised by decay, fractures, cracks, or extensive wear. By encapsulating the entire visible portion of the tooth above the gumline, crowns provide strength, durability, and protection against further damage. Our skilled dental team meticulously designs and crafts each crown to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth for a beautiful and harmonious smile.

Symptoms of Needing Porcelain Crowns

• Severely decayed or damaged teeth
• Cracks or fractures in the teeth
• Large or unsightly fillings
• Weakened teeth after root canal therapy
• Cosmetic imperfections or discoloration

Treatment Process

During your porcelain crown procedure, our experienced dentists will first prepare the affected tooth by removing any decayed or damaged tissue and reshaping it to accommodate the crown. We will then take impressions of your tooth to ensure a precise fit and natural appearance. While your permanent crown is being fabricated in a dental laboratory, a temporary crown will be placed to protect the tooth. Once the final crown is ready, it will be bonded securely into place, restoring the strength, function, and aesthetics of your smile.
