How dental crowns from your dentist in Everett, Washington can help your smile.
How much do you know about dental crowns? Do you know that they provide more protection for damaged teeth than other dental restorations? Do you know that dental crowns can actually make your smile more beautiful? The truth is, dental crowns can help your smile in many ways.
Dr. Ryan Bond and Dr. Megan Bond of Bond Family Dentistry in Everett, Washington provide a wide range of dental services, including dental crowns to help your smile.
A dental crown covers the entire visible surface of your tooth above the gumline. The crown protects your tooth like a tiny suit-of-armor, preventing your tooth from breaking. This overall protection is especially helpful for teeth that are damaged, broken, or weakened. Dental crowns provide much more protection than a large filling. That’s because a large filling can divide your tooth into sections, weakening the tooth. When you bite down on a large filling, there is a chance your tooth may break. A dental crown actually holds your tooth together, protecting it. Superb protection is just one of the benefits of dental crowns.
Consider that dental crowns are:
- Naturally beautiful, because porcelain is a common material used in dental crowns; porcelain is light-reflective and closely resembles natural tooth enamel.
- Long-lasting, because dental crowns can last for decades with proper care; porcelain is also stain-resistant, so your porcelain crown will stay white and beautiful for years.
Full porcelain crowns are suitable for any area of your smile, but for back teeth, you may want a little more strength. For these teeth, porcelain can be fused to a strong metal underlay, giving you a porcelain-fused-to-metal or PFM crown.
You and your smile can benefit from the strength and beauty of crowns. If you have broken or badly worn-down teeth, or a smile full of large, old metal fillings, consider dental crowns to rebuild your smile.
