Porcelain Crown and Functions 

Porcelain dental crowns officially replace a tooth’s exterior portion to reinvent the original function as well as to enhance the natural appearance. When tooth decay destroys most of your original tooth, crowns are a popular treatment option, but may also be appropriate for those people who clench or grind their teeth, such that the structure of the patient’s teeth has been weakened significantly. Porcelain crowns are a major part of cosmetic dentistry and can mimic the tooth or make it look even better, while also addressing the primary concerns of the original tooth function. The veneer is thinner than the porcelain crown and in your individual situation, this additional thickness may be desired.

All veneers and crowns are secured inside your mouth using a resin between the crown and the original tooth followed by the hardening of the resin using a special light. These are two different procedures. Partial crowns may also be used to restore a filling which ultimately covers one or more of the cusps and this is known as an inlay, which is like a filling. Although all the work is completely on the tooth’s chewing surface and within the cusps of the tooth, this can be undetectable from your original tooth.
