Dental Crowns Kaneohe

Versatile and durable restorations that strengthen and enhance teeth.

Severe tooth decay can sometimes destroy a tooth to the point where a filling cannot keep it intact. If left untreated, these teeth can break down even further. In these cases, dentists rely on dental crowns to protect what’s left of the tooth. Dental crowns are one of the most essential restorations we offer. A crown can save a broken or decayed tooth by holding it together & protecting it from further damage. It can also serve as a beautiful replacement for an unsightly tooth. A crown, also called a cap, is an excellent way to cover teeth that are discolored or poorly shaped or to cover a dental implant. A crown can make your tooth stronger & improve its appearance. A crown acts the same way as a tooth, so after your crowns are placed, you should treat it the same way. Continue to brush & floss regularly & see your dentist for regular checkups!

What Is A Dental Crown?

In dentistry, a crown or a cap is a fake tooth that fits on top of a damaged tooth. They are custom-made to fit your smile & are built to last. There are several conditions that rely on crowns to save your teeth. You may even need a crown after undergoing specific dental treatments. A root canal or large filling can weaken an affected tooth & make it very vulnerable to cracking or breaking, so a crown is needed for protection. Crowns can also be used as a cosmetic treatment to improve the look of a misshapen or discolored tooth. There are several types of crowns available to you, & each one varies in terms of appearance & strength. Our doctors can help you determine the best crown for you, depending on your assessment.

Transformative effects

Dental crowns offer transformative effects by restoring the strength, function, and aesthetics of damaged or decayed teeth. With a crown in place, a compromised tooth becomes revitalized, providing durability and protection while seamlessly blending with the surrounding teeth. This transformative treatment not only enhances your smile but also improves chewing efficiency, boosts self-confidence, and promotes overall dental well-being, allowing you to enjoy life with renewed comfort and a radiant, natural-looking smile.
