What Is a Dental Crown?
/
A dental crown is a custom-fitted cap that covers a tooth down to the gumline. Traditional crowns are used to restore damaged or decaying teeth. If your dentist is unable to save a tooth or you're already missing a tooth, a crown can be used to top a dental implant. Implants are small posts that are embedded into the jaw. The lifelike restorations even have applications in cosmetic dentistry.
How Is a Dental Crown Placed?
What Types of Dental Problems Can Crowns Fix?
We will determine whether you need a crown during a free consultation at our Port St. Lucie office. There, our dentist will review the health of your teeth and gums and discuss your concerns and goals.
Damage or Decay
A dental crown can restore and protect a damaged or decaying tooth before it leads to more serious oral health concerns.
Root Canal
If a decaying tooth needs to be treated with a root canal, a dental crown can be placed to protect the remaining healthy tissue.
Missing Teeth
A crown can replace a single missing tooth with the support of a dental implant.
The Benefits Of Dental Crowns
Increased Confidence
A damaged, decaying, or missing tooth can impact the appearance of your smile. A dental crown is indistinguishable from your surrounding teeth, giving you a natural, beautiful-looking smile.
Restored Bite
Severely damaged or missing teeth can cause your bite to become misaligned. This can lead to more serious issues like temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD). A dental crown can realign your bite and take the added stress off of your TMJs.
Improved Oral Health
If left untreated, a decaying tooth can cause infection, pain, and tooth loss. A dental crown can prevent your decaying tooth from progressing into a more serious oral health concern.

Dental Crown vs. Dental Bridge What's the Difference?
A traditional dental crown is an effective solution to repair a single tooth that does not need to be extracted. A dental bridge is used to fill the space left by a missing tooth. A traditional dental bridge is secured by the surrounding teeth (abutment teeth) so unlike an implant-supported dental crown, is not self-supporting.
