Porcelain Crowns
If you have very large cavities, fractures or loss of
healthy tooth structure, porcelain crowns are a smart
and attractive way to restore your teeth.
More attractive than metal crowns –
Porcelain
crowns contain no metal so there is no dark gum line as
you often see with many traditional metal crowns. It is
difficult to distinguish porcelain crowns from the real
tooth.
Incredibly strong and functional –
Because they are created in a dental laboratory, these
crowns can be custom fitted to the prepared surface of
your tooth. This process reduces the size of the seam
between the crown and the tooth, keeping decay from
eventually occurring under the crown.
Smart preventive care –
Crowns should be placed before the tooth becomes so
decayed that it may fracture. This important preventive
measure can, in many cases, eliminate the need for
expensive root canal or extraction procedures in the
future.
