Crowns

A crown is a protective covering made of porcelain that looks like a tooth. This crown acts as a helmet to protect the remaining tooth from further deterioration and break down. A crown can help strengthen a tooth with a large filling when there isn’t enough tooth remaining to hold the filling. Crowns can also be used to attach bridges, protect a weak tooth from breaking or restore one that’s already broken. This is a good way to cover teeth that are discolored or badly shaped. It’s also used to cover a dental implant.
