Tooth enamel is the hardest substance in the human body. Unfortunately, it's also the most fragile and susceptible to damage. If left untreated, the enamel can wear to the point where it exposes the nerves of the teeth. As a result, the teeth may become very sensitive. In such cases, dental crowns or caps provide an ideal solution for protecting and strengthening the tooth's structure and restoring its natural appearance.
Deep decay can compromise the structure of teeth. When decay becomes too large in a tooth, a crown may be the better option than fillings because it covers the entire tooth and gives it strength and stability.
Porcelain Caps and crowns can be used in cosmetic dentistry to correct imperfections such as discoloration, misalignment, and misshapenness.
