Crowns

Dental Crowns in Portsmouth, NH

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that is placed over a tooth to cover the tooth and restore its shape and size, strength, and improve its appearance. The crowns, when cemented into place, fully encase the entire visible portion of a tooth. A dental crown may be needed to prevent a weak tooth from breaking or to hold together parts of a cracked tooth, to restore a broken tooth or a tooth that has been severely worn down, to cover and support a tooth with a large filling when there is not a lot of tooth left or to cover or severely discolored teeth.
