Dental Crowns Repair Damaged Teeth to Restore Your Appearance

Dentist in Irving, TX

If you have a damaged tooth or you would like to improve the aesthetics of your smile, you may benefit from a dental crown at our Irving, TX, practice. A crown is a “cap” that will cover your entire tooth, serving both restorative and cosmetic purposes to enhance dental function and appearance, and blending seamlessly with your smile.

At Kids and Grownups Dental, we use a variety of advanced materials to create durable, lifelike crowns. Drs. Joshua Lee and John Lee will work very carefully to ensure that your crown fits comfortably and maintains the natural force of your bite.

Are You a Candidate for a Dental Crown?

Crowns can perform many different functions. If you have a cracked or weakened tooth, you may benefit from this type of restoration. A crown may also be appropriate if you have a very large cavity that is too extensive for a filling.

A dental crown serves both restorative and cosmetic purposes.

Dr. Joshua Lee or Dr. John Lee will take x-rays to determine the extent of your dental damage, and decide whether a traditional or implant-supported crown is right for you.

Although crowns are most commonly used for restorative purposes, in some cases they are placed for cosmetic reasons. A crown can enhance your appearance if you have a worn, misshapen, or unusually small tooth. A crown can also conceal dark internal stains that do not respond to teeth whitening.

Patient Results

Restorative dental work can refresh your entire look by rejuvenating your smile, as was the case with this patient who received porcelain veneers and crowns.

Maintaining Your Restoration

Caring for a crown is easy: you will simply need to maintain regular conscientious dental hygiene. Though the crown itself will not be subject to bacteria and decay, a cavity can still develop within the underlying tooth.

To protect your crown and overall dental health, you should brush at least twice a day. Floss and use antimicrobial mouthwash at least once daily. Finally, be sure to schedule regular dental exams and cleanings. With excellent dental hygiene, your crown can last for decades.
