Porcelain Crowns


All Porcelain CrownsCrowns, also know as caps, restore the portion of the tooth above the gum line with a man made material, in this case tooth colored porcelain. Crowns may be necessary because of broken down old fillings, fractured, chipped or sensitive teeth. They are generally placed on teeth that have had root canals to protect them from breakage. Crowns are also used to improve the appearance of natural teeth that are malformed, mal positioned or discolored.

Crowns can be made of natural looking porcelain and are made to improve your overall smile or to blend in with your own teeth. Sometimes an underlying metal shell is used under the porcelain if additional strength is needed.
