Porcelain Crowns

San Diego, La Jolla and Poway

San Diego Cosmetic Dentistry - Porcelain Crowns A crown covers your entire tooth, replacing the outside surface and leaving the inside tissue in place. Dr. Coleman uses porcelain crowns when a filling cannot provide enough strength and coverage to restore your tooth to its natural function. Such situations are:

Where there are large area of decay
After a root canal
In teeth where fillings have failed
In teeth which are weak or brittle

Whether you are getting an original crown or replacing an old one, a porcelain crown will look, feel, and act just like your natural tooth.

Gold crowns are very visible, and other tooth-colored materials have a more dull, flat look. Porcelain absorbs and reflects light in the same way that your natural tooth enamel does, so your crown will look natural and alive.

Porcelain is also very strong and resistant to staining. You will be able to use your tooth as you did before it became damaged.
