Crowns
The reason you may need a dental crown is to protect weak teeth damaged by decay. Crowns prevent the teeth from cracking further and holds them together. They can also cover the tooth with a large filling or dental implant, hold a dental bridge in place, or support a cosmetic modification. Whatever the reason may be, dental crowns are a great way to preserve the longevity of the teeth.
