CROWNS

When you have complicated dental problems, such as a fractured tooth, a large cavity, or an old filling that has failed, Dr. Villaroman will place a porcelain crown. Also called dental caps, crowns restore stability and protect teeth. These custom-made restorations are created to completely cover the remaining tooth structure and are fabricated from high-quality porcelain for strength, durability, and appearance.

Generated to precisely match the shade of your natural teeth, your porcelain crown will create a beautiful, subtle solution. Dr. Villaroman can sculpt the crown to the perfect shape and size for your smile. Crowns can also work for attaching a bridge, restoring a dental implant, covering discolored or misshapen teeth, or protecting a weak tooth from further damage.

To place a crown, Dr. Villaroman will first numb your tooth using comfortable and completely safe anesthetic measures. He will then reduce the size of the tooth and shape it in preparation for the crown. Dr. Villaroman will also remove any decay, take an impression of the tooth, and adhere a temporary crown that you will wear while the lab produces your final restoration. At a second appointment, Dr. Villaroman will clean, polish, and secure your permanent crown. With gentle, thorough care and regular dental visits, patients can enjoy years of benefits from their dental crowns.
