Crowns (or dental caps) are restorations that completely enclose a natural tooth. This is done to build a damaged or imperfect tooth to an ideal size and shape. Crowns are often made of tooth-colored composite resin or porcelain for the most aesthetically pleasing results possible. There are many reasons why Dr. Brian J. Waggle may recommend a dental crown in Zanesville, Ohio, including:
- To cover and support a tooth with a large filling
- To protect a tooth that has had root canal therapy
- To restore broken, fractured, uneven or cracked teeth
- To enhance the beauty of a smile
- To protect a weak tooth from breaking
- To hold a cracked tooth together
- To anchor a dental bridge
- To cover badly stained teeth
