A dental crown is essentially a cap that is placed over your natural tooth that helps restore its appearance, strength, and shape. A crown covers your natural tooth in its entirety, going all the way down to the gum line.
Crowns are effective restorations that help protect a tooth that has been weakened and damaged by decay. They also restore broken or chipped teeth and cover badly shaped or discolored teeth. They also hold dental bridges in place and attach to dental implants.
Dental bridges may be recommended by Dr. Kurzweil if you have several missing teeth. A bridge is a row of artificial teeth that fills the space or is attached to a dental implant. Both bridges and crowns can last a lifetime with proper dental hygiene practices in place. However, they can sometimes loosen or fall out in which case your dentist will make adjustments.
One of the many benefits of seeing Dr. Kurzweil for your general, restorative, or cosmetic dentistry needs is his continued commitment to incorporating dental technology into his practice. Our patients benefit from the very best in digital dentistry technology with CEREC. This revolutionary technology allows Dr. Kurzweil to complete dental crown restorations in the same visit.
