Dental Crowns: The Solution to Full Mouth Restoration
Are you looking for a way to restore your teeth to their natural beauty and functionality? Dental crowns might be the answer you’re looking for! We’ll discuss what dental crowns are, the different types available, and how they can help restore your smile. We’ll also dive into full mouth crowns, a treatment option for those in need of extensive restoration.
Dental crowns, also known as “caps,” are prosthetic devices that are placed over damaged or weakened teeth to restore their shape, size, and strength. They are typically made of porcelain or ceramic, but can also be made of metal, resin, or a combination of materials. Dental crowns are custom-made to fit over the prepared tooth and are cemented into place, providing a long-lasting and natural-looking solution to tooth damage.
What are dental crowns?
There are several types of dental crowns available, each with its own unique advantages and disadvantages. The most common types of dental crowns are:
Restored Tooth Function
Dental crowns, implants, and restorations help strengthen weakened teeth, improving chewing, speaking, and overall oral health for long-term function.
Permanent Tooth Damage Solution
Dental crowns, implants, and veneers provide durable solutions to restore and protect teeth affected by decay, fractures, or wear.
Tooth Structure Protection
Dental crowns and fillings shield weakened teeth, preventing further damage while maintaining strength, function, and natural appearance.
Types of Services
Gold Crowns
A gold crown restores a damaged tooth, offering durability, strength, and minimal tooth removal, ideal for molars.
Ceramic Crowns
Ceramic crowns are durable, stain-resistant, natural-looking, and stronger than traditional porcelain, but they tend to be pricier.
Resin Crowns
Resin crowns are temporary, plastic-based, less durable, and wear down over time, serving as placeholders for permanent crowns.
