Dental Crowns

Dental crowns

A dental crown is a “cap” used to encase an entire tooth that can not be restored with a simple filling.

Dental crowns are used in instances such as:

• When a tooth is cracked, worn down, or weakened
• A tooth is cracked, worn down, or weakened
• To protect root-canaled teeth
• To cover a poorly shaped or discolored teeth

Although we offer several different types of crowns, the most popular is the porcelain crown. Porcelain crowns are tooth-colored and made to resemble your natural teeth and fit comfortably in your mouth.

Dr. Aboud will consult with you about the best type of crown for you depending on your preference and the location and function of your tooth.
