Dental Crowns

Most dentistry looks like dentistry. Our goal is to provide natural looking dentistry that is undetectable. We replace existing crowns and fillings with restorations that look and feel like your own teeth. Our restorations are fabricated right here in Clearwater, FL. The certified dental technician may be consulted to assure a beautiful result.

Where damage to a person's teeth is extreme, and apparently beyond repair, we can use porcelain or porcelain fused to metal crowns to make the smile appear "as new". This is an extremely reliable technique for repairing the most severe of dental problems, even permanently replacing missing teeth to offer a complete smile and a functional bite. We are renowned for the quality of our work and the fantastic changes we make for people using this technology. These treatments are used for a long-lasting correction of major dental problems.

Fabricating a crown requires at least two visits to our office. Initially, we will remove decay, shape the tooth, and fit it with a comfortable temporary crown.

On the subsequent visit we will remove the temporary crown, and custom fit the final restoration. After you approve the bite and appearance of your new crown; the crown will then be cemented into place and you will have a new beautiful looking tooth.

What are the capabilities of crowns?

Crown and bridgework is a very reliable solution for major dental problems caused through accidents, diseases or wear and tear. Major problems can usually be corrected using these techniques. Where accidental damage has occurred, resulting in lost teeth, or where teeth have broken away through excessive wear, or as the result of old fillings breaking, crowns and/or bridges can be used as a long-term solution.

Many people have unexplained pain from filled back teeth, which is usually due to hairline cracks in the chewing part of the tooth. Placing crowns on these teeth relieves the pain and allows a return of full dental function for these teeth. In front teeth, older fillings can both weaken the teeth and cause "appearance" problems due to staining or chipping. Porcelain crowns and bridges are suitable in cases where porcelain veneers are not. In teeth with root canal fillings, crowns can prevent breakage.
