Porcelain Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are one of the most popular cosmetic dental restoration methods today. This technique involves placing a porcelain crown over a reshaped natural tooth to restore damaged teeth and enhance your smile. The crown is designed to mimic the size, shape, and color of a real tooth, with a hollow core that allows the natural tooth to act as the supporting structure. Depending on the material used, your dental condition, and the expertise of the dentist, the aesthetic results may vary.

1. Understanding Dental Crowns

A dental crown is an artificial porcelain cap placed over a reshaped natural tooth to improve its form, function, and aesthetics. With the hollow core design, the natural tooth beneath serves as the abutment (tooth root support).
