Crowns

We know that our patients want to look their best, but it can be hard if you’re embarrassed by your smile. Cracks, decay, and worn teeth can make you feel self-conscious, even around your family and closest friends. If your teeth have suffered from years of wear and tear and are looking less than perfect, we can restore them with crowns.

What is a crown?

You might have heard the word crown along with "inlay" or "onlay." That's because they're all related. An inlay or onlay covers only a part of your tooth. Inlays fit between the cusps of the tooth, and onlays are designed to fit over them. A crown, however, is a more comprehensive treatment, covering the entire tooth. Sometimes called "caps," crowns protect the underlying tooth from decay and damage all while preserving your beautiful smile. A rebuilt tooth with a custom crown, like the kind provided by Dr. Tracey, is virtually indistinguishable from your other, natural teeth. Crowns can restore your tooth to its natural form and function, protect your existing tooth from further damage, and even serve as an attractive cosmetic treatment to renew misshapen or unevenly spaced teeth.

A crown may very well be the best choice for treatment for you. At your consultation and comprehensive exam, Dr. Tracey can explore the options for restoring your smile, which often include dental crowns. Crowns can be combined with other cosmetic procedures, such as porcelain veneers, to create a complete smile makeover.
