A dental crown is a custom-made cap designed to cover a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are commonly used in various situations, such as after a root canal, to support a large filling, or to protect a tooth that is severely worn or cracked.
Dental crowns can be made from several materials, including porcelain, ceramic, metal, or a combination of these. Porcelain and ceramic crowns are popular for their natural appearance, blending seamlessly with surrounding teeth. In contrast, metal crowns offer exceptional durability and strength, making them ideal for back teeth that endure heavy chewing forces.
The process of getting a [dental crown][1] typically involves two visits. During the first appointment, the dentist prepares the tooth by removing any decay and shaping it to accommodate the crown. An impression is then taken to create a custom crown. In the second visit, the permanent crown is placed and adjusted for a perfect fit.
