Crowns (Caps)

Restore Your Tooth With A Dental Crown in Jeffersonville

porcelain crowns in jeffersonville

Porcelain crowns are tooth-shaped caps that cover your tooth to restore its original size and shape. They also restore the appearance, functionality, and strength of your damaged tooth. With a crown, you will chew and bite comfortably without damaging what’s underneath. Porcelain crowns protect the delicate root by shielding it and holding it together.

The crown procedure requires two dental appointments. The first appointment involves taking accurate impressions that will be used to fabricate your crown in the laboratory. We will remove the decay, shape the surface, and place a temporary crown.

At your second visit, your temporary crown will be replaced by your new customized crown. Dr. Richard will ensure that it fits and functions correctly. A porcelain crown can be used to:

  • Restore the look & functionality of a worn or broken tooth
  • Support & cover the remaining parts of a damaged tooth
  • Encase parts of a broken or cracked tooth
  • Protect a dental implant
  • Enhance beauty
  • Support a bridge

Once your final tooth is set in place, your cosmetic dentist will make any necessary adjustments to perfect the fit into your bite.
