Crowns
 

BEFORE	AFTER

When a tooth has had a large cavity, a large filling, a root canal or a fracture, a crown may be needed to provide maximum protection. A crown is a custom made cap that covers your entire tooth to protect it from the forces of your bite and chewing. These caps are made of all porcelain, porcelain with a metal substructure, resin or gold. Porcelain crowns are custom shaded to match adjacent teeth and have the most realistic appearance. Crowns can whiten, reshape or realign existing teeth, adding to a healthy and attractive smile. This dental procedure is usually completed in 2 visits and can last a lifetime.
