If one or more of your teeth suffer from cavities, discolorations, cracks or other damage, your dentist may recommend a crown. A safe and proven treatment option, a crown is a custom-made appliance that covers your natural tooth structure to ultimately strengthen your tooth and improve the appearance of your smile.
In the past, restoring a tooth with a crown required at least two visits — often with a week, or even two, between appointments.
Using new sophisticated technologies, today it’s possible for your dentist to restore a tooth with a crown in just one appointment. In fact, this long-lasting, natural-looking treatment can often be completed in as little as two hours.
