Porcelain Crowns

Porcelain crowns, also known as dental caps, are versatile and aesthetically appealing restorations used to cover and protect damaged or weakened teeth. At HALO Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, we offer custom-made porcelain crowns that not only restore the functionality of your teeth but also enhance your smile’s natural beauty.

Advantages of Porcelain Crowns:

1. Natural Appearance: Porcelain crowns closely resemble the color, texture, and translucency of natural teeth, providing a seamless and lifelike appearance.
2. Strengthening Weakened Teeth: Crowns can reinforce weakened or damaged teeth, preserving their structural integrity and preventing further deterioration.
3. Durability and Longevity: Porcelain crowns are highly durable and can last for many years with proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups.
4. Customized Fit: Each crown is custom-made to fit precisely over your tooth, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit.

The Porcelain Crown Placement Process:

1. Consultation and Examination: Dr. Patel will conduct a thorough examination to determine if a porcelain crown is the best option for your dental needs. X-rays may be taken to assess the tooth’s condition.
2. Tooth Preparation: The affected tooth will be prepared by removing any decay or damage and reshaping it to accommodate the crown.
3. Impressions: Detailed impressions of the prepared tooth will be taken to create a custom porcelain crown that perfectly fits your mouth.
4. Temporary Crown Placement: While your permanent crown is being fabricated, a temporary crown will be placed to protect the prepared tooth and maintain aesthetics.
5. Permanent Crown Placement: Once the permanent crown is ready, it will be carefully placed, adjusted for fit and bite, and permanently bonded to your tooth.

Porcelain crowns at HALO Family & Cosmetic Dentistry provide a natural and durable solution to enhance the function and appearance of your teeth. We are committed to providing you with crowns that offer both aesthetic appeal and long-lasting results.
