Dental crowns are one of the most widely used dental treatments for cosmetic and restorative dental concerns. A dental crown can repair and strengthen your smile. Dr. Gorsky uses only the highest quality materials to create your custom-designed crown so it fits perfectly in your smile. A dental crown will complement your appearance and support the integrity of your bite.
Why Would I Need a Dental Crown?
Dental crowns can be used to treat a range of concerns, including:
- Supporting a tooth after a root canal
- Repairing a decayed or damaged tooth
- A final restoration for a dental implant
- Changing the appearance of a tooth for a smile makeover
How Do Dental Crowns Work?
Crowns strengthen and support even the most worn down or broken teeth so well because they encase the entire visible part of a tooth, firmly attached to your natural tooth beneath. This means the tooth’s roots anchor the crown, and the beautiful porcelain crown becomes your tooth’s new outer surface.
The application of a crown is usually completed in two easy visits. At the first visit, we prepare your tooth, remove any decay, and prepare it for the placement of the new dental crown. We will take impressions and place a temporary crown to protect your tooth until the permanent crown is completed. At your second visit, your beautiful crown will be bonded in place.
You’ll leave with a tooth that feels so natural and looks much like your own; you may even forget which tooth has been repaired! Yonkers, Eastchester, New Rochelle, and all Westchester County communities receive the best dental care from Crestwood Dental.
