Cosmetic Dental Crowns Are Now Available At Gunbarrel Dental Center
A
Crown for a Tooth by Dr. Savory
Teeth are often restored with fillings of silver or composite
plastics. These materials can often accomplish the aim of replacing the
part of the tooth that has been lost in a strong and good-looking
manner.
However, there comes a point where the damage to the tooth has
removed too much structure to hold a filling. The restoration must be
done by a technique that will attach to the remaining tooth, stand up
under heavier use and meet more elaborate cosmetic requirements.
The crown is the dental restoration
that can strengthen and restore the entire top of a tooth. The crown can
also be part of the attachment of a fixed bridge for the replacement of
teeth. The tooth is strengthened because it is covered from the outside
with a casting of metal or ceramic that will wrap up and splint the
tooth, just like a cast on a broken bone.
Chewing can be improved because the tooth can be reshaped to match
more efficiently with the opposing teeth. A crown can improve cosmetics
by the use of modern ceramic processes that produce translucency and
color that is more natural than has ever been possible.
