Dental Crowns and How They Can Help Your Smile

Dental crowns from your dentist in Berkley, Michigan can rebuild your smile.
 

How much do you know about dental crowns? Did you know that they are one of the best options to rebuild damaged or badly decayed teeth? In fact, dental crowns can strengthen your teeth, AND they can make your teeth more beautiful too.
 

Dr. Ron Williamson in Berkley, Michigan offers a wide range of dental services, including dental crowns to rebuild your smile.
 

A dental crown protects your tooth by encasing the entire visible surface of your tooth above the gumline. When you bite down on a crown, the pressure and stress of biting are spread out over the entire surface of your tooth, guarding the tooth against breaking.
 

Dental crowns offer superb protection, but that’s not all. They can also enhance the beauty of your smile. One of the most common crown materials is porcelain, which reflects light. Porcelain also looks just like natural tooth enamel. In fact, when a full porcelain crown is placed, it is virtually identical to your natural teeth.
 

Full porcelain is beautiful, but sometimes you need a bit more strength, especially with back teeth. Porcelain can be fused to a strong metal underlay. These types of crowns are known as porcelain-fused-to-metal or PFM crowns. They are an excellent choice for both beauty and durability for your back teeth.
 

If you need to restore badly damaged teeth that have lost a significant amount of tooth structure, you may need a post and core build-up. Your dentist will place a post inside your tooth and build a metal framework around the post. The post and core build-up provide a strong foundation on which the crown is cemented.
