Dental Crowns
Dental Crowns Available in High Point, NC
Getting a dental crown is imperative for various situations, including protecting a weak tooth from breaking, restoring an already broken tooth, holding a dental bridge in place, and supporting a tooth with a large filling when there isn't much tooth left. Dental crown work helps restore your bite to its natural state and improves the appearance of your smile.
Crowns for a Variety of Uses
Depending on the type of treatment you have received for your dental problem, dental crowns can be used in a variety of ways, including:
​
-
Having your tooth restored to its original size and shape
-
Supplying additional physical support for the treated tooth
-
Getting a complete "makeover" on the affected tooth
Our dentists use high-quality porcelain, ceramic, and resin for your dental crown, ensuring a beautiful result that lasts for years. If you aren't sure of the best option for your dental crown work, rely on us to help you choose the solution that most meets your needs and your budget
While inlays and outlays cover the chewing surface of the tooth and fillings fill in the empty interior space of the tooth, a dental crown completely covers every visible part of the tooth, which is why they are sometimes referred to as "caps." A part of your tooth remains but is essentially "rebuilt" to resemble the tooth at its exterior best.
A dental crown helps to protect your damaged tooth and provides the necessary stability for dental bridges, allowing you to eat and drink normally without pain or discomfort. Most dental crown work lasts for upwards of 15 years, and, if properly placed and maintained, your dental crown may last up to 30 years. Hiring an experienced and qualified dentist for all dental crown work ensures you get the most out of your tooth crown.
While a porcelain tooth crown certainly can improve the look of a tooth or multiple teeth, it is recommended only in conjunction with prior tooth repair and not simply for cosmetic purposes.
