When teeth are damaged due to accident, decay, or lack of proper hygiene, they need proper treatment. Modern treatment options can help stall decay, limit the damage, and make sure the affected tooth looks natural at the same time. Our dentist Dr. Shraiteh has vast experience in this field and will offer the most ideal treatment options to you. If the tooth is damaged and needs protection, dental crowns are a good treatment option. Our dentist will conduct a thorough examination to understand the condition of the damaged tooth before recommending the procedure. If you want to know more or have any specific concerns, don’t hesitate to contact us at (561) 753-6633 and book an appointment today at House of Smiles.
Dental crowns are prosthetic teeth placed on a natural root. They preserve the integrity of your tooth and ensure you can smile confidently. Modern dental crowns look similar to natural teeth because they are made from a high-quality porcelain. If the crown is fitted correctly, you won’t be able to tell the difference. The crown is permanently attached to the root of the natural tooth or a dental implant. It stays in place with the help of durable dental cement. You don’t have to remove the crown to clean it like you have to with dentures.

Dr. Shraiteh will conduct a thorough examination and let you know whether a dental crown is suitable for your condition. Here are some reasons why you might need a crown:
A dental crown will protect any tooth that has a large filling. The crown is placed on top of the damaged tooth to give it some reinforcement and improve its appearance.
If you undergo a root canal, you need a dental crown. The dentist will remove a lot of natural dental matter to eliminate all of the decay. The crown will stabilize the tooth structure.
Cracked or chipped teeth don’t just look bad, but can also develop infections because the protective enamel is damaged. The crown protects the exposed areas from bacteria.
Excessive wear can happen if you grind your teeth, consume a large amount of acidic food, or have some health conditions that cause excessive vomiting.
Dental crowns can protect your teeth in such circumstances. If you want a reliable dentist or need advice, feel free to call House of Smiles at (561) 753-6633. We will make sure your teeth are healthy once again.
