Ceramic Crowns

Carrollton TX Ceramic Crowns

A crown (or cap) is a covering that encases the entire tooth surface, restoring it to its original shape and size.  A crown protects and strengthens tooth structure that cannot be restored with fillings or other types of restorations. A crown may become necessary or desired for one or more of the following reasons:

  • Broken or Fractured Teeth
  • Cosmetic Enhancement
  • Decayed Teeth
  • Fractured Fillings
  • Large Fillings
  • Root Canal

There are several different kinds of crowns. The most durable type of crowns are ceramic crowns.  They resemble your natural teeth and are very reliable. Durable and strong, crowns are expected to last many years but, like most dental restorations, a crown may eventually need replacement. Ceramic crowns are made and customized in size and shape to match your naturally grown teeth. This is done to restore full functionality to your teeth and to provide optimal cosmetic results for your smile. If you would like to discuss whether or not you need a crown, contact Dr. Hampton & his team today.
