Procedure preparations
- Dental crowns are tooth-like caps that are put on the teeth to restore their shape. A dental crown is used in many cases, such as a cracked tooth, tooth deformity, covering a discolored tooth, strengthening a weak tooth, root canals, holding a dental bridge, and in dental implants.
- There are several types of dental crowns, such as metal crowns, porcelain and ceramic crowns, and porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns.
