Crowns
The dentist may recommend a crown to cover and protect a tooth when it has had a root canal, a large filling, or breakage. Crowns can also improve the color of a tooth, change the shape of a tooth, or cover a dental implant. We use precious metal, porcelain pressed (or fused) to metal, or all-porcelain crowns. Porcelain fused to metal crowns are generally used for strength on back teeth and all-porcelain crowns are generally used on front teeth for their aesthetic and translucent properties.
