Why Warren dentist may suggest placing crowns over natural teeth
At Laser Dental Associates, we use restorations such as crowns in a number of situations. We work with our patients to determine if they have the best solution for their concerns.
Crowns are porcelain restorations made to fit over the natural teeth for several purposes. Many are used to provide protection to the natural tooth enamel. Teeth that have broken or teeth that have been weakened due to root canal therapy may benefit from bonding a crown over the top. Additionally, crowns are used to cover dental implants and act as a false tooth. They can be fused to pontics (false teeth) and used as a dental bridge. Teeth with extremely large fillings can be protected by dental crowns. Discoloration and permanent staining can also be disguised using dental crowns, in the same way a veneer can cover imperfections.
As you can see, dental crowns play an important part in both general and cosmetic dentistry. Patients who believe they may be appropriate candidates for the placement of a crown can speak to their trusted team of professionals at Laser Dental Associates. We work with our patients to learn more about what they expect from their dental team and educate them on the benefits of placing crowns when situations warrant them. Additionally, our practice provides CEREC crowns, which are made in-office and they eliminate the need for repeated visits. Crowns can be placed the same day and in one appointment, unlike many dental practices, which may require weeks and several appointments from start to finish.
