7 Ways Cosmetic Crowns for Teeth Can Completely Refresh Your Smile

One unsightly tooth can steal attention away from an otherwise gorgeous smile. It could be that no one even notices the flaw in that tooth except for you. But the opinion of the person looking back at you from the mirror matters more than that of anyone else.

If you don’t love your smile, a high-quality cosmetic denture crown from Dr. Katie Griffith at Richard D. Weigand, DDS, may help you love the smile you see every day in the mirror again.

1. Fix a Cavity That’s Too Big for a Filling

When decay gets too big, it can’t hold a filling. That’s where a crown comes in. A crown completely covers your tooth. It both protects and beautifies. So eating becomes easy and comfortable again. 

2. A Quality Porcelain Crown Hides Cracks and Chips

When you have a cracked tooth, it’s a lot more than just an imperfect smile. It can constantly cut your tongue or cheeks. A huge pain. But it can also become infected and is at risk of decay. And that can mean eventually losing your tooth. 

A quality porcelain crown is matched to the same color and shape as your other teeth. Nobody will know you have a crown except for you.

3. Worn-Down Teeth Can Look and Feel New Again

Some people naturally have shorter teeth. But a lot of people grind their teeth when they’re asleep at night. This will eventually wear down your teeth. They’ll look short and flat. Here’s what a crown can fix.

• Flat teeth from enamel that’s worn down.
• Less enamel means more exposure to staining and even discomfort.
• Teeth that are short or narrow.
• Smaller-looking teeth.

4. Strengthen a Tooth After a Root Canal

When you have a root canal, it’s pretty common to need a crown afterward. Your pain will be gone, but the tooth will be weaker because of the infected tissue Dr. Griffith has removed. A crown will keep your tooth from cracking. The porcelain matches your other teeth beautifully.

5. Dental Implants Need a Crown on Top

If you’ve lost a tooth and plan to replace it with a dental implant, you’ll have a crown that tops off the titanium post that Dr. Griffith implants in your jaw. The implant heals in your jaw, and the crown is placed on top and works exactly like a real tooth.

6. A Fix for Cosmetic Dental Flaws

Cosmetic crowns can cover up many flaws you’d like never to see again when you smile. A tooth that’s so discolored that teeth whitening doesn’t fix it can be camouflaged with a crown.

Or if you have that one tooth that’s shaped differently from the rest of your teeth, a crown can fix that too. Dr. Griffith will assess the tooth’s health and recommend a crown if she thinks it’s a good fit for what you have going on.
