Today, we will discuss the reasons for getting dental crowns. A dental crown involves using special materials to "crown" or cover the entire problematic tooth. The primary purpose is to protect the remaining tooth structure from further damage while restoring the tooth’s strength and functionality.
Reasons for Getting Dental Crowns
- Large Cavities: When a tooth has a cavity too large to be treated with a simple filling, a dental crown helps prevent further decay and restores the tooth's strength.
- Cracked or Broken Teeth from Accidents: Accidents can cause teeth to crack or break. A dental crown helps protect the damaged tooth from further harm and restores its functionality.
- Severely Worn Teeth: Teeth that have worn down significantly due to use or excessive chewing pressure may require a dental crown to prevent additional wear and restore their function.
- Teeth That Have Undergone Root Canal Treatment: Teeth that have had root canal treatment usually have little remaining tooth structure, making them prone to fractures. Dental crowns provide the necessary protection and durability.
Benefits of Dental Crowns
Getting a dental crown not only helps prevent dental health issues but also enhances the natural appearance of your teeth. Traditional dental crown procedures often require multiple visits over several days. However, new technology has made the process quicker and more convenient, allowing us to provide natural-looking dental crowns within a single day!
