Dental Crowns
In the realm of restorative dentistry, dental crowns stand as a testament to the blend of artistry and science. Serving both functional and aesthetic purposes, crowns are a trusted solution for restoring the integrity of a damaged tooth. At our dental office in Burke, VA or Chevy Chase, MD, we specialize in crafting and placing crowns that seamlessly integrate with your natural teeth.
Understanding Dental Crowns
Traditionally, dental crowns were constructed using metal alloys, which provided durability but lacked the aesthetic appeal of natural teeth. However, with advancements in dental technology, modern crowns are now predominantly made from materials like porcelain or ceramic. These newer materials offer several advantages, including enhanced aesthetics, increased strength, and improved durability. Ceramic crowns, in particular, have become the preferred choice due to their denser, stronger, and more aesthetically pleasing properties compared to traditional metal crowns.
Why Opt for a Dental Crown?
Dental crowns serve multiple purposes:
Restoration : They can restore a tooth that's been significantly damaged or decayed.
Protection : Crowns safeguard a weak tooth from breaking or hold together parts of a cracked tooth.
Cosmetic Enhancement : They can cover misshapen or severely discolored teeth, enhancing the overall appearance of your smile.
