High-Quality Dental Crowns in San Francisco – Restoring Your Smile
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that covers a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are often used to protect a tooth after a root canal, restore a broken or severely worn tooth, or cover a large filling when there isn’t enough tooth structure left. They can also be used to improve the appearance of discolored or misshapen teeth.
Long-Lasting & Aesthetic Dental Crowns for a Confident Smile
Crowns can be made from various materials, including porcelain, ceramic, metal, or a combination of materials. Porcelain and ceramic crowns are popular for their natural appearance, as they can be color-matched to your existing teeth.
The process of getting a crown typically involves preparing the tooth by removing a portion of the enamel, taking impressions, and fitting a temporary crown while your custom crown is fabricated. Once ready, the permanent crown is securely bonded to your tooth, providing a durable and long-lasting solution.
