Dental Crowns: Protecting a Weakened Tooth
A crown covers and supports a tooth that has lost strength through decay, fracture or a large restoration. I recommend one only after checking whether a more conservative repair can provide a predictable result.
What I will help you check
- How much sound tooth structure remains.
- Your bite, symptoms and the condition of the tooth nerve.
- Material, appearance and the maintenance the crown will need.
Ask me: Is a crown necessary, and what alternatives have we ruled out?
