Restore Your Smile with Dental Crowns at Pier Dental
At Pier Dental, we specialize in high-quality dental crowns to restore the function, shape, and appearance of damaged teeth. Our dental crowns help you regain confidence and improve your oral health, giving you a reason to smile again.
What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a cap that protects and restores a damaged tooth. It fits over the tooth to restore its shape and function. Typically, we use crowns for:
- Reinforcing teeth with large fillings or decay.
- Protecting weakened teeth from further damage.
- Improving the appearance of discolored or misshapen teeth.
- Supporting dental bridges or covering implants.
Our team works closely with you to choose the best crown material. Whether it’s porcelain, ceramic, or metal, we ensure it meets your needs and preferences.
Benefits of Dental Crowns
Choosing a dental crown for tooth restoration offers several advantages:
- A Natural Appearance: Crowns are color-matched to blend with your natural teeth, so they look seamless.
- Durability: They are designed to last for years, giving you long-term protection.
- Protection: Crowns prevent further damage to vulnerable teeth.
- Functionality: Once in place, you can chew, speak, and smile comfortably.
