By covering your entire tooth, dental crowns act as an added layer of protection between your damaged tooth and the external environment. Crowns also act as a barrier against bacteria, reduce the risk of recurring infections, and make sure the tooth remains fully functional. This protective function helps preserve the tooth's structure and maintains its ability to withstand everyday pressures like chewing and biting.  

Dental crowns are designed to mimic the appearance of natural teeth. So, they act as excellent disguises for your decaying teeth. Made from materials like porcelain or ceramic, crowns are custom-crafted to match the color, shape, and size of your adjacent teeth for a seamless look. It does not matter if you use them for front or back teeth. They will enhance your aesthetics and overall dental health.

Our porcelain dental crowns in Concord are famous for their natural appearance, as they closely mimic the color and translucency of real teeth. They are ideal for front teeth restorations, where aesthetics matter the most. While they offer excellent cosmetic benefits, they may not be as durable as metal-based crowns, especially for molars that endure heavy forces.  

Porcelain Crowns

Porcelain Fused Metal crowns combine the strength of metal with the aesthetics of porcelain. Their metal base provides durability, while the porcelain overlay gives a natural look. These crowns are suitable for both front and back teeth, offering a balance between strength and appearance. However, over time, the metal beneath the porcelain may show a dark line near the gum line.

Porcelain Fused to Metal Crowns

Made from gold, silver, or other metal alloys, metal crowns are incredibly strong and resistant to wear. So, they are ideal for molars, as they can withstand heavy biting and grinding without chipping or breaking. While highly durable, their metallic appearance makes them less suitable for visible teeth, which is why you might often see them for back teeth restorations.

Metal Crowns

Zirconia crowns are known for their superior strength and durability. They serve as a great choice for both front and back teeth. Unlike porcelain fused to metal crowns, they do not have a metal base, eliminating the risk of a dark gum line. They are also biocompatible and a safe option for patients with metal allergies. Best of all, they are highly resistant to fractures and wear while offering a tooth-colored appearance.

When the teeth are so damaged that the fillings cannot fix them, dental crowns come to the rescue. They cover the entire tooth surface to protect it from deteriorating further and the infection from spreading. This makes crowns an essential solution for preserving natural teeth that might otherwise require extraction. 

Restorative Purposes

Crowns improve the appearance of teeth that are discolored, misshapen, or uneven. Custom-made to match the size, shape, and color of natural teeth, they are an affordable way of transforming your smile. Dental crowns are commonly used in smile makeovers to create a more uniform and aesthetically pleasing look. 

Cosmetic Procedures

After a root canal, the tooth loses its pulp and becomes more brittle and susceptible to fractures. In such cases, our dentist might add a dental crown for necessary structural reinforcement. Moreover, it helps prevent the tooth from breaking and saves you from costly procedures.  

Post-Root Canal Treatment

Dental bridges rely on crowns to anchor them securely in place. The dental crowns are placed on adjacent healthy teeth or implants to support the bridge and fill gaps left by missing teeth. It provides stability and refrains the surrounding teeth from shifting out of place.
