Can Crowns Really Imitate Tooth Enamel?

A crown provides protection by surrounding a tooth, covering its vulnerable structure to keep it safe from physical damage and infection. This kind of support is needed after some cavity treatments, as well as when dental injuries threaten your oral health. At our Virginia Beach, VA dentist’s office, we are prepared to offer custom crowns that provide long-term security and support. Of course, if you need work done on a tooth that is easier to see when you smile and speak, you can worry about more than just how much protection you receive. Fortunately, you can count on cosmetic benefits as well as functional ones from your care, as we can provide crowns that are made with materials that imitate healthy enamel!

Will A Dental Crown Affect The Quality Of My Smile?

Your oral health is important, and so is your bite function. When a tooth’s poor condition threatens these things, it can lead to larger issues with your health as well as with the onset of discomfort around basic jaw movements. A crown can take care of problems that have affected your bite function and well-being. When the right material is used to construct the crown, treatment can also have benefits for your smile! We provide crowns that are made with lifelike materials that let you preserve how you look so you will not have to worry about restorative services affecting your appearance.

Reasons You Might Need A Crown

There are different reasons why patients can require dental crowns. Restorations are often used to take care of cavities that have grown too large for dental fillings. This kind of restoration is also used to address worries over physical trauma that can leave a tooth vulnerable. Before recommending this or any other kind of treatment, we can carefully evaluate a tooth and see if you are a good candidate for a more conservative option for care.

Using Cosmetic Services To Take On Dental Flaws

There are times when cosmetic work can be performed instead of treatment with a crown. Cosmetic dentistry provides more conservative solutions for problems with teeth that are misshapen, damaged, or flawed in other ways that concern you. We can look at the advantages to placing a porcelain veneer, which only covers a tooth’s front, or we can even look at the positive impact of dental bonding and contouring treatment.
