What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a cap-like structure that completely covers or crowns a damaged tooth or an implant. Crowns are usually recommended when a substantial amount of tooth structure has been lost due to decay, root canal treatment, or trauma.

Essentially, it provides a protective shell around the weakened tooth, restoring its shape, size, and functionality. A new crown is necessary when:

After Root Canal Treatment. A tooth that has undergone root canal therapy is often weakened and more susceptible to breakage. A crown adds reinforcement and longevity to the treated tooth.
Lost Tooth Structure. When there's insufficient tooth structure left to support a filling, a crown becomes the optimal choice for restoration.
Cracked or Broken Teeth. Crowns serve as an effective solution to hold together parts of a cracked or broken tooth, preventing further damage.

What to Expect with the Procedure

The process usually involves two visits. During the first appointment, your chosen provider will evaluate the condition of your tooth and prepare it for the crown by removing decayed or weakened areas. An impression is then taken, which serves as a model for the crown. Temporary crowns are placed while you wait for the permanent ones to be fabricated in a dental laboratory.

Advantages of Dental Crowns

With dental crowns, you can enjoy the following:

Longevity. With proper care, dental crowns can last many years, making them a long-term solution for damaged teeth.
Aesthetic Appeal. Crowns can be made to match the color of your natural teeth, offering a seamless and natural look.
Restored Functionality. Beyond aesthetics, crowns restore the functionality of your teeth, allowing you to eat and speak normally.
Protection. They offer a sturdy defense against further decay, infection, and damage.
