Dental crowns are extremely versatile and can be used in many ways. The team at Borderview Family Dental use dental crowns to repair broken or damaged teeth. Crowns are an effective way to restore proper function when it comes to chewing food and maintaining the natural alignment of the jaws and teeth. Below are the benefits of choosing crowns for tooth restoration.
- Natural appearance – Dental crowns look so similar to natural teeth that it is extremely difficult to tell them apart. When your dentist fabricates a crown, they construct it to look identical to the tooth it is replacing. It will fit snugly in place without disrupting the alignment of your jaw, making it easier for you to eat and speak. The natural look will also boost your confidence and allow you to smile more freely.
- Durable – Crowns can be made of gold, porcelain, zirconia, or other durable material. All these materials can last for years.
- Easy to maintain—Crowns are easy to maintain. They don’t require extra care other than brushing and flossing each day. Rinsing your mouth between meals is also beneficial and will prevent bacteria from building up. Your dentist will be able to identify any potential problems that need fixing.
- Versatile – Crowns have many uses. They can be used to repair broken teeth or teeth that have had root canals. Crowns can also be placed as dental bridges to replace one or multiple missing teeth and fill in gaps. Your dentist will examine your teeth and decide to use crowns if a large portion of the tooth has been compromised. Using a crown is a better option than having to extract a tooth.
