What are Dental Crowns?
A dental crown (often called a “cap”) is a custom-made restoration that completely covers a damaged or weakened tooth. Think of it as a protective shell that restores your tooth’s natural shape, size, and strength while enhancing its appearance. Crowns are designed to look and function just like your natural teeth, making them an ideal solution for both front and back teeth.
Unlike fillings that repair a portion of a tooth, crowns encase the entire visible surface above the gum line, providing complete protection and restoration. This makes them the gold standard for saving teeth that might otherwise need extraction.
