A crown is a type of dental restoration designed to entirely encase the tooth, beginning at the gum line. Our dental crowns in Newtown, Connecticut can be created from all porcelain, porcelain fused to metal, or gold. Each type of dental crown has its own advantages and disadvantages; our talented dentists will help you determine which type of crown best meets your individual dental needs and goals. Each dental crown is custom made to ensure that it fits your smile aesthetically and comfortably. Drs. Condon and Golisano may recommend a dental crown in order to improve your smile by:
- Restoring a significantly damaged or decayed tooth
- Protecting a tooth following root canal therapy
- Strengthening a weakened or fractured tooth
- Enhancing the beauty of your smile
- Completing a dental implant
- Supporting a dental bridge
- Improving the function and appearance of an irregularly shaped tooth
If you choose an all-porcelain crown, your crown can be created using CEREC® one-visit crown technology. CEREC same-day crowns are designed, created, and placed in a single visit to Newtown Dentistry. For more information on dental crowns and CEREC technology, we welcome you to call or visit us soon.
