A crown is a type of cap that completely covers a real tooth. It's made from metal or a mixture of porcelain and metal, and is fixed in your mouth. It encircles the remaining tooth structure to strengthen and protect the weakened tooth structure.

​
-
Past filling/restoration
-
Cracked tooth
-
Large cavity/decay/caries
​
-
Missing cusp
-
Endodontically treated tooth (root canal)

Esthetics
Procedure Steps
A crown usually takes two visits, two weeks apart.
