If you want a
smile that's your crowning glory,
you may need a crown to cover a
tooth and restore it to its normal
shape and size. A crown can make
your tooth stronger and improve its
appearance.

It can cover
and support a tooth with a large
filling when there isn't enough
tooth left. It can be used to attach
a bridge, protect a weak tooth from
breaking or restore one that's
already broken. A crown is a good
way to cover teeth that are
discolored or badly shaped. It's
also used to cover a dental implant.
If your
dentist recommends a crown, it's
probably to correct one of these
conditions. Your dentist's primary
concern, like yours, is helping you
keep your teeth healthy and your
smile bright -- literally, your
crowning glory.
