Dental crown consultations for cracked, broken, worn or root canal treated teeth in Lara.
Dental crowns can help restore strength, shape and function
A crown is a custom-made restoration that covers and protects a tooth when a filling alone may not be strong enough.
Cracked or broken teeth
A crown may be recommended when a tooth is cracked, fractured or weakened from previous damage.
Heavily filled teeth
Teeth with large fillings may need extra protection if there is not enough strong tooth structure remaining.
Root canal treated teeth
Some teeth may need a crown after root canal treatment to reduce the risk of cracking and improve long-term function.
When might you need a dental crown?
You may need a crown if your tooth is cracked, broken, worn down, weakened by a large filling, damaged by decay or has had root canal treatment. Crowns can also be used to improve the shape or appearance of suitable teeth.
Your dentist will assess the tooth, discuss X-rays where needed and explain whether a crown, filling, onlay, extraction or another option is most appropriate.
