What these words mean

Pick a name. The photo shows what it is. The note is a short explanation, not a treatment plan. After an exam we can tell you what applies to your teeth.

Crowns

A cover for a cracked or heavily filled tooth.

When a filling would be too large, or a tooth is cracked, a crown covers and protects it. We shape the tooth, take a record, place a temporary, and cement the lab-made crown at a second visit.

A temporary can come off. Save it and call. An uneven bite after a few days is worth a short adjustment.
