Have you been recommended for a dental crown or think you may need one?
Dental crowns are recommended in many different situations including both cosmetic touch-ups to major restorative procedures. But what exactly do they do, and why are they so common?
In this blog post, we break down the core functions of a tooth crown in Athens and how it can help your smile.
A crown fits over the tooth like a cap to restore its structure. We use tooth crowns when a tooth is broken, worn down, or has a cavity too large for a filling. It’s like putting a protective cap over the tooth to shield it from more damage. The crown prevents further damage while boosting the strength and durability of the tooth.
Not all crowns are placed solely because of decay. Some are used to correct cosmetic flaws like uneven shape or discoloration. Crowns are especially helpful for front teeth that are highly visible when you smile or talk. We use natural-looking crowns to blend in with your smile and improve the look of a tooth that needs it.
Every crown is made just for your tooth. Your dentist will take impressions and color-match them for a natural appearance. Once placed, most people won’t be able to tell the difference between your crown and the rest of your teeth.
