Crowns
Exceptional Dental Repair in Brooklyn Park, MN
If a tooth is significantly damaged, our dentists may recommend a restoration called a crown. A dental crown, sometimes referred to as a cap, entirely covers the tooth in order to improve its strength, health, and function.
Uses for Dental Crowns
Crowns can also be used for aesthetic purposes, enhancing a tooth that is damaged or flawed. Dr. Dave may recommend a crown to:
- Enhance a tooth that is severely stained or discolored
- Cover and complete a dental implant
- Attach a dental bridge
- Protect a tooth after root canal therapy (endodontic treatment)
- Improve the look and function of a misshapen tooth
- Restore a seriously damaged or decayed tooth
- Strengthen a fractured or otherwise weakened tooth
- Support a large filling when little natural tooth structure remains

Dental crowns are very versatile. Each crown is custom made to precisely fit your smile, providing a restoration that is comfortable, lasting, and aesthetic. While dental crowns can be made from a number of materials, including gold and porcelain fused to metal, our dentists may recommend an all-porcelain dental crown for a natural-looking effect.
