What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a cap that replaces the natural crown of a tooth, repairs the functionality, and restores the size of a tooth that has suffered damage or decay beyond what can be fixed with a dental filling. If you are experiencing tooth damage, the strength of your tooth may be compromised. We often see patients who have old mercury fillings that are developing cracks in the enamel and underlying structure because the filling has acted as a wedge in the tooth over time. These teeth are best restored by either an onlay or a crown that reinforces the strength of the tooth by covering a section of the tooth.
Our goal is to conserve the enamel of the tooth and use an onlay. Today, we are able to do this using gold or ceramic materials. Gold is the traditional material of choice, though, with advances in ceramic and bonding technology, the majority of our patients prefer the cosmetically superior ceramic onlay or crown.
When Do You Need a Dental Crown?
Dr. Lerner may recommend a dental crown if you are experiencing any of these dental issues:
- Severe discoloration
