Feel Like A Royalty With Our Dental Crowns Service
Are you wondering what are dental crowns and why should you opt for them? If you are from Byford, your dentist might explain: Dental crowns are a cap placed on top of the damaged tooth. It is set to cover, protect, and restore the tooth shape when filling the teeth does not solve the problem. Dental crowns can be made using porcelain, metals, ceramics, or resin. All that you need to do to increase the life of your crown is to maintain good hygiene.
We all want to keep our tooth in the best condition, but problems with the tooth may get damaged structurally. This could cause tooth decay, cracking and chipping of the tooth, and loss of filing, resulting in larger issues on the tooth’s surface. Dental crown treatment may also be needed even if you brush and floss regularly. A dental crown can help to repair your teeth and also restore the smile. In case you are suffering from any of the above-stated symptoms, get in touch with your Byford dental clinic today.

What Is Dental Crown, And How Can It Help Me?
The teeth get damaged with time because of varied reasons like an injury or tooth decay. The tooth may also start to lose its size and shape. Dental crowns are shaped like a tooth and are placed on top of the tooth. It helps to restore the size, shape, appearance, and strength of your tooth. The crown is cemented onto the tooth, and it boosts the size of the visible tooth.
Here is how a dental crown helps you:
- It protects a weak tooth
- Restores a broken tooth
- Supports and covers the tooth that has a large filling
- Holds the dental bridge in place
- Covers discoloured or misshaped tooth
- It covers a dental implant
- It covers a tooth that has been treated using a root canal
FAQ's
Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Crowns
How Long Do Dental Crowns Last?
A dental crown can last many years, but it is essential to follow the right steps to increase its longevity. A dental crown can last for more than 15 years, but it is crucial to maintain proper oral hygiene. How the crown is placed in the mouth also determines the crown's life. Some crowns may be able to last even for a lifetime, whereas some may crack and need replacements soon.
Clenching or grinding the tooth, maintaining bad oral hygiene, and using cheaper material for the crown can decrease the crown's life.
Why Are Crowns So Expensive?
Advanced technology is needed to produce the crown. The crown also needs to be customized to match the colour and the shape of your tooth. Since a crown will offer more durability, strength, and functionality, these provide excellent longevity and are an expensive solution. This makes the crown a well-researched investment.
Are Crowns Worth It?
If you have a large filling in your tooth, or if your tooth is cracked and worn out, you should consider getting a crown.
