Crowns play a major role in cosmetic restoration and provide much-needed strength and restore the original shape of your tooth. They are advised when a tooth is worn out, or partially broken off due to decay. They are fixed on top of an existing tooth and cover the tooth in its entirety.
Porcelain crowns are often preferred over metal since they reflect the natural appearance and luminosity of teeth and are considered a very strong material.
The crown is created in a lab that specializes in ceramic and porcelain work. Your tooth impression supplied by the dentist helps the crown maker to intricately design your crown to your unique bite and jaw alignment.
