FAQ
Get Your Questions Answered
What issues can a dental crown treat?
Dental crowns can effectively treat a variety of issues, including cracked teeth, severe decay, misshapen teeth, and teeth that have undergone root canal therapy. If you have a damaged or compromised tooth due to decay, trauma, or cosmetic concerns, a dental crown may be recommended to restore its health, function, and appearance.
You may be wondering what the differences are between veneers vs. crowns. Even though both alter the appearance of the teeth, porcelain veneers act as a shell to cover the entire visible surface of the tooth. They conceal cracks, chips, discoloration and other imperfections, and they serve as a great way to cosmetically enhance the aesthetics of a smile. While a veneer covers the front surface of the tooth, a dental crown covers the entire surface of the tooth. Patients who have decay or trauma may need dental crowns to aid in strengthening and repairing the teeth.
