A crown is a resoration that covers, or caps, a tooth to restore it to its normal size and shape. Its purpose is to strengthen or improve the appearance of a tooth. Crowns are placed for a variety of reasons. For example:
-Crowns can restore teeth when there isn’t enough tooth remaining to provide support for a large filling
-Crowns can attach bridges
-Crowns can help protect weak teeth from fracturing
-Crowns restore fractured teeth
-Crowns cover badly shaped or discolored teeth
-Crowns cover dental implants
