There are many types of dental crowns but one of the types we regularly recommend are those made from porcelain. This durable and attractive material is commonly used in dentistry because it is a material that matches the look of natural tooth enamel. We use porcelain crowns to transform discolored teeth, strengthen weak teeth, and cover damage. Our dentists may recommend a dental crown made of porcelain for reasons such as:
- Protecting Teeth After a Root Canal Procedure
- Protecting Teeth that are Weak from Fillings
- Securing Other Devices like Bridges
- Preventing Cracks, Chips, or Breaks from Worsening
- Hiding Imperfections like Chipping and Staining on the Teeth
