A dental crown offers total protection for a vulnerable tooth. The protective covering envelops the entirety of the tooth, down to its gum line. This can be needed after your tooth has experienced a root canal treatment, or in the wake of a serious physical injury. Thanks to CEREC Same-Day Crowns technology, your dentist is no longer dependent on a dental lab to produce your crown – it can be made in the office, and can be designed and placed in a single visit. Restorative dentistry is concerned with the health and stability of your teeth – whether you receive a filling or a crown, the restoration your dentist places will ensure that your tooth can operate as normal, just as it did before needing treatment.
Questions:
