If you're self-conscious about cracked, broken, decayed, or worn teeth, we can bring back your healthy, natural-looking smile with dental porcelain. It can return structure, strength, and function to a tooth with extensive decay or damage. Designed to fit snugly and function as a healthy tooth, a ceramic restoration will protect your tooth from further damage and preserve the jaw's correct natural alignment.
We use precious metal, porcelain pressed (or fused) to metal, or all-porcelain crowns. To maintain a fully white smile, we recommend all-ceramic crowns. Our precise color-matching system allows us to find the right shade of porcelain to blend with your natural tooth color. Porcelain crowns are also extremely durable and long lasting, and these benefits make them popular with dentists as well as patients.
Typically, we can design, fit, and place your porcelain restoration in just a couple of short appointments. Once it is placed, you can care for it as you do your natural teeth. Conscientious brushing twice a day, daily flossing, and irrigation will protect the base of your restoration from bacterial growth. Be sure to see us at lat your customized intervals for professional cleanings and a preventive exam, too.
