| PORCELAIN CROWNSCrowns will restore a broken, heavily filled, or cracked tooth to its original size and shape. Crowns are also recommended after a root canal as the tooth tends to become brittle and easily fractured. Crowns can strengthen and protect the remaining tooth structure and will improve the appearance of your teeth.Crowns are a type of dental restoration which, when cemented into place, fully cups over the portion of a tooth that lies at and above the gum line. In comparison, fillings are dental restorations that fill in or cover over just a portion of a tooth. Since dental crowns encase the entire visible aspect of a tooth, a dental crown in effect becomes the tooth’s new outer surface. Crowns can be made out of porcelain meaning some sort of dental ceramic, metal, gold or other metal alloys, or a combination of both. Other terms that are used to refer to dental crowns are dental caps and tooth caps.
