A dental crown is a versatile restoration that can protect a damaged tooth, improve its appearance and help hold dental prosthetics in place. Our dentists and team offer permanent dental crowns in Jefferson City, MO — and with our CEREC technology, yours can be ready in a single visit.
What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over the entire visible portion of a tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength and appearance. Crowns are crafted from durable materials such as porcelain, ceramic or zirconia and are carefully matched to blend with your natural teeth.
When Is a Crown Needed?
- To protect a weak tooth from breaking or to hold a cracked tooth together
- To restore a tooth that is severely worn down or broken
- To cover and support a tooth with a large filling
- To cover a dental implant
- To anchor a dental bridge
- To cover a misshapen or severely discolored tooth
- To protect a tooth after root canal therapy
