Dental Crowns to Repair Tooth Damage
Crowns are synthetic caps placed on the top of an entire tooth to restore its function and appearance following a restorative procedure such as a root canal. When tooth decay has become so advanced that large portions of the tooth must be removed, crowns are usually the best solution. They can also be used to attach bridges, cover implants, prevent a cracked tooth from becoming worse, or can act as a preventive measure when an existing filling is in jeopardy of becoming loose or dislocated.
