Dental Crowns
Dental Crowns Improve the Appearance & Strength of Teeth
A Dental Crown is a bonded cap that can shield worn, cracked and often even severely damaged teeth. Dental Crowns not only make the teeth stronger they also improve the aesthetic appearance; restoring their shape and size proportionally.
Dental Crowns – What Are They Made Of?
Dental Crowns can be made from several materials – The cosmetic dentists at Perfect Smile Spa will only use the best Dental Crowns available.
A gold Dental Crown is not as commonly used today as it once was. Even so, these Crowns are extremely long lasting, strong and so particularly good if there is very little room in the bite.
A metal alloy bonded to Ceramic or Porcelain Crowns are available: Although this type of metal - ceramic - Porcelain Crown combination has a tendency to cause dark lines to appear in the gums over time; which people can find unsightly and so this alternative unappealing.
Ceramic and Porcelain Crowns are the most natural in appearance and give ultimate results. For most people Porcelain Crowns are the most attractive and so best choice – Therefore Porcelain Crowns also tend to be the most popular choice.
Why Might Dental Crowns Be Required?
A partially damaged tooth can be restored and protected with a Dental Crown.
For teeth which have been worn down and unevenly eroded Dental Crowns can be the best option to restore and protect them from further damage.
Dental Crowns can even be used to rebuild a tooth which has been significantly damaged or eroded away, leaving very little of the tooth behind.
After a dental implant or canal treatment Dental Crowns may need to be fitted to protect the tooth.
Dental Crowns – The Main Advantages
Two of the main advantages of Dental Crowns is they protect the whole surface of the tooth from erosion, decay and any further damage: And if the teeth are crooked Dental Crowns will greatly improve their look.
Do They Last?
Dental Crowns do need an equal level of care as natural teeth. Provided you practice and keep a good level of oral hygiene – clean teeth regularly, employ a good diet and also attend dental check-ups regularly our high quality Dental Crowns could last anywhere between 10-15 years: Sometimes even longer!
