Dental Crowns Can Restore Your Newport News Smile

Categories: Cosmetic Dentistry

Dental Crowns Newport NewsA dental crown is a versatile dental restoration because it can be used in a variety of different ways. A dental crown can bring strength and stability to a tooth that is weakened through injury or decay. It may restore function and aesthetics to a tooth that is severely worn down. Dental crowns can be used to hold a dental bridge in place. They are also instrumental in the completion of a dental implant procedure.

Dental crowns are made from a variety of materials including metal, resin or porcelain. Porcelain crowns are a popular option because of their strength and durability. This material also best imitates the look and feel of your natural tooth. Typically a dental crown placement takes two trips to the dentist. Your first visit to our Newport News practice is to assess your tooth’s needs and fit you with a temporary crown, while a permanent restoration is created in a dental lab. The second visit is to fit and place the permanent dental crown.
