A crown is a type of dental restoration which completely caps or encircles a tooth or dental implant. Crowns are often needed when a large cavity threatens the ongoing health of a tooth. They are typically bonded to the tooth using a dental cement. Crowns can be made from many materials, and can be fabricated in the dental office or in a dental lab. Crowns are used to improve the strength or appearance of teeth. Dr. Ferguson will determine at your dental appointment if any of your teeth are in need of a crown - he will also discuss the possible treatment options with you.
