Damage to a natural tooth can significantly impact the structure of the tooth. By doing so, it can weaken a tooth and make it much more susceptible to breakage or tooth loss. Dr. Trevor Williams and his team at Williams Family and Cosmetic Dentistry encourage patients to learn more about dental crowns, or “tooth caps,” in his Brandon, FL area practice to determine candidacy.

How do dental crowns work?

Dental crowns are incredibly versatile restorations used in general dentistry practices. Dr. Trevor Williams utilizes dental crowns in various ways. A crown can be made to place over the abutment of a dental implant to act as a tooth replacement option, or one can be fabricated to bond over a tooth that has had severe damage from decay, disease, or injury. Patients who have root canal therapy may also have a dental crown made to cover the tooth and protect the brittle remaining structure.

What are the benefits of dental crowns?

Crowns are:

  • Strong and durable
  • Long-lasting
  • Natural-looking
  • Effective at restoring chewing and biting efficiency
  • Useful for strengthening a tooth impacted by decay or disease
  • Versatile, replacing or restoring natural teeth
  • Affordable and often covered by dental insurance plans

All about Dental Crowns with Dr. Trevor Williams

All about Dental Crowns with Dr. Trevor Williams
If you have a crack in your tooth or a worn-out filling, a dental crown may be the solution for you. Watch Dr. Trevor Williams of Williams Family and Cosmetic Dentistry explain it.

Hi, my name is Dr. Trevor Williams, and I want to tell you a bit about dental crowns.

Why are dental crowns needed?

A tooth weakened by a large cavity, a worn-down filling, or even a crack in a tooth would need a crown utilized to return it to its optimal shape and function.

What is the crown procedure?

The procedure requires reducing the tooth to remove the decay and covering the tooth with a tooth-colored material.

A crown is more expensive than a dental filling. However, a crown’s durability and reliable longevity offset that expense over time.
