San Diego Porcelain Crowns

Porcelain Crowns

Porcelain crowns can strengthen and repair a tooth that has become discolored, worn down, or broken. Before a crown can be placed, our dentists must ensure that the damaged tooth is free of decay. The tooth to be crowned will then be roughened. An impression of this roughened surface will be made so that a crown can be custom-manufactured by a dental laboratory.

The crowns we use are color-matched to each patient's teeth and have a custom fit for optimal comfort. When your crown arrives, it will be adjusted as necessary and bonded to your tooth. Crowns made of porcelain are stain-resistant, just like natural teeth. The newly crowned tooth will add strength, balance, and durability to your smile.
