A dental crown is a tooth-shaped covering that conceals and strengthens a natural tooth. A crown covers the entirety of the natural tooth, down to the gumline.
At SmilesHQ, we use dental crowns to protect damaged or decayed teeth, but we can also use them to conceal aesthetic imperfections, like a discoloured tooth that doesn’t respond to teeth whitening.
The Versatility of Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are versatile and can be used to correct or conceal various concerns––both restorative and cosmetic. Patients might need a dental crown for many reasons, such as:
- Protecting a weak or deeply decayed tooth
- Preventing a brittle tooth from breaking or crumbling
- Restoring a broken or severely worn-down tooth
- Securing a dental bridge in place
- Covering a dental implant
- Supporting a tooth with a large filling or little remaining natural tooth structure
- Concealing a misshapen or discoloured tooth
- Restoring a tooth that’s received root canal therapy
