A ceramic crown is a full-coverage biocompatible restoration that replicates the form and function of a natural tooth. It’s often recommended in the following the situations:
- To repair and rebuild a tooth with extensive structural damage due to decay or trauma
- To replace a large or broken filling
- To restore a dental implant
- To provide full coverage for the abutment teeth, serving as the supporting ends of a traditional dental bridge
- To strengthen and protect a tooth that has undergone root canal therapy
- To improve the look of an undersized, slightly misaligned, darkly stained, or misshapen tooth
- To address bite discrepancies
