What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown, often referred to as a "cap," is a versatile dental restoration that covers the entire visible part of a tooth above the gumline. These can serve many purposes, including:

  • Repairing decayed teeth beyond the scope of fillings.
  • Strengthening teeth after root canal treatment.
  • Protecting and reinforcing cracked or worn-down teeth.
  • Covering misshapen or discolored teeth.
  • Replacing missing teeth as part of a dental implant or bridge procedure.

Traditionally, dental crowns were crafted from metals like gold or silver. While we do offer gold crowns as an option, advancements in dental technology have led to tooth-colored ceramic crowns. These provide a more natural-looking result with long-lasting durability.
