Introduction
A dental crown is a versatile and common dental restoration that can save and enhance the appearance of damaged teeth. Whether you’re dealing with a broken tooth, severe decay, or looking to improve the aesthetics of your smile, dental crowns can be the perfect solution. Tijuana, known for its excellent dental services at affordable prices, is a prime destination for those seeking high-quality dental care. In this article, we’ll delve into what dental crowns are, their benefits, the process involved, and why Dr. Dalia Dental in Tijuana should be your top choice.
What Are Dental Crowns?
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over a damaged or decayed tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are cemented into place, fully encasing the visible portion of the tooth above the gum line. They are typically made from materials such as porcelain, ceramic, metal, or a combination of these, depending on the needs and preferences of the patient.
Benefits of Dental Crowns
Protection and Strength
Dental crowns provide a protective cover for damaged or weak teeth, preventing further decay or breakage. They restore the tooth’s strength, allowing it to function normally.
Improved Appearance
Crowns can significantly enhance the appearance of your teeth by covering imperfections such as discoloration, cracks, or misshapen teeth. They are designed to match the color and shape of your natural teeth, creating a seamless look.
Durability
With proper care, dental crowns can last many years. They are resistant to stains and wear, making them a long-lasting solution for dental restoration.
Enhanced Functionality
Crowns restore the functionality of damaged teeth, allowing you to chew and speak comfortably. They also help maintain the alignment of your bite and prevent adjacent teeth from shifting.
