Love the doctors and hygienists here
Crowns and veneers are used to improve the appearance and/or strength of teeth that are chipped, cracked, discolored, or misshapen. Crowns are used for more extensive damage and provide full coverage for teeth that are severely weakened, while veneers are thinner shells that cover the front of a tooth for cosmetic issues.
Why use crowns?
- Severe damage: To protect a tooth that is severely cracked or broken, or to cover a tooth after root canal treatment.
- Severe discoloration: To mask deep stains that don’t respond to whitening.
- Weakened structure: To restore a tooth’s strength and function when the underlying structure is compromised or weakened, providing full coverage to prevent further decay.
- Support: To hold a dental bridge in place.
Why use veneers?
- Cosmetic concerns: To improve the appearance of teeth that are only mildly chipped, or to correct issues like minor cracks, irregular shape, or slight misalignment.
- Aesthetic improvement: To create a more uniform and aesthetically pleasing smile.
- Less invasive: To address cosmetic issues with minimal removal of the natural tooth enamel.
