Each patient's crown experience is unique. For minor issues, a crown can be placed directly on the tooth.
Damaged teeth require removal of decayed tissue, while severe cases may involve root canal therapy before a crown.
Crowns can also replace teeth attached to dental implants or support dental bridges by crowning neighboring teeth.
Natural crowns are the visible white parts of your teeth above the gum line, but they can become damaged for several reasons, including:
Enamel erosion
(etc.)
Tooth decay
Wear and tear
Teeth grinding (bruxism)
If these issues affect your crown, Dr. Baker can rebuild it using materials like ceramics or metals. She’ll clean and reshape the tooth before fitting the new crown securely, giving it a “second chance” to shine! You’ll be smiling soon!
