What Is a Dental Crown?

A crown (or cap) is a covering that encases the entire tooth surface, restoring it to its original shape and size. A crown protects and strengthens tooth structure that cannot be restored with fillings or other types of restorations.

Although there are several types of crowns, porcelain (tooth-colored crowns) are the most popular. They are highly durable and will last many years, but like most dental restorations, they may eventually need to be replaced. Porcelain crowns are made to match the shape, size, and color of your teeth, giving you a long-lasting, beautiful smile.

Reasons for crowns:

  • Broken or fractured teeth.
  • Cosmetic enhancement.
  • Decayed teeth.
  • Fractured fillings.
  • Large fillings.
  • Tooth has a root canal.

Am I a Good Candidate?

If you want to restore the beauty of your teeth, you are an ideal candidate for a dental crown. It is important to have good overall oral health before you undergo a dental crown procedure.

You can get a dental crown if your teeth are weak and need extra protection from breaking. A dental crown can also be applied on broken, misshapen, discolored or worn-down teeth. You may also need a dental crown if you are getting a dental bridge.

Your Consultation

When you visit Dr. John Cho, expect an oral examination. Dr. Cho will check your teeth and give you options to achieve the best results. Your mouth will also be checked for periodontal disease to determine if you are fit for the procedure. Additional imaging like X-rays may be required before you can proceed to the next step.
