A damaged, cracked, or severely decayed tooth can compromise your ability to eat comfortably, speak clearly, and smile with confidence. Fortunately, dental crowns offer a highly reliable, long-term way to save a weakened tooth and restore it to its natural function and appearance.
At Novo Dental Clinic, located near Lem Hotel, our restorative specialists design custom dental crowns that act as a protective, seamless “cap” over your existing tooth.
What is a Dental Crown and Why Might You Need One?
A dental crown completely encases the visible portion of your tooth that sits above the gum line. We typically recommend a crown in the following scenarios:
- Severe Decay: When a cavity is too large for a standard [Internal Link: composite filling] to fix.
- Cracked or Fractured Teeth: To hold together a damaged tooth and prevent the fracture from spreading to the root.
- Post-Root Canal Therapy: A tooth often becomes brittle after [Internal Link: root canal therapy]; a crown provides necessary structural reinforcement.
- Anchoring a Bridge: Crowns are placed on healthy teeth to hold a [Internal Link: dental bridge] in place.
The Materials We Use
Modern dentistry has moved far beyond noticeable metal caps. Today, we focus on aesthetics just as much as durability. We offer high-quality Porcelain and Zirconia crowns. These materials are incredibly strong and can be color-matched to the exact translucency and shade of your surrounding natural enamel, making your dental work virtually invisible.
The Novo Dental Experience
Getting a crown with us is a streamlined, comfortable process. We utilize advanced digital imaging to take precise impressions of your teeth—eliminating the need for messy, uncomfortable putty. Your custom crown is then milled to perfection, ensuring a flawless bite alignment.
