Over the years, our teeth may wear down and become damaged or decayed. Dentists can treat tooth enamel that has chipped, cracked or decayed with a variety of dental treatment options, including bonding, veneers and crowns. Typically, a dentist may recommend a dental crown when there is extensive structural damage to the surface of the tooth but the tooth’s root remains intact.
A tooth crown is a dental restoration that covers and protects a damaged tooth. More precisely dental crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over a tooth – covering the tooth to restore its shape and size, strength, and/or to improve its appearance.
