Dental Crowns in Charlotte

Custom-designed dental crowns permanently replace damaged teeth. They resemble a hollow, tooth-shaped “cap” that fits over a prepared natural tooth. Once cemented, crowns fully encompass the visible part of a tooth, extending from the gum line upwards. Their sole function is to renew the look of the damaged tooth, making it look like a whole tooth again.
