Crowns
Crowns
Dental crowns are tooth-shaped coverings used to repair teeth and secure bridges. They can be made in porcelain, metal, and ceramics. We discuss the options with each of our clients and help them decide which would be the best for their circumstances. We can do the same for you. Contact us to schedule an appointment to discuss the benefit that crowns can have in your life.
Types of Crowns
When you come to Mulkins Main Dental we consult with you and explain the merits and detriments of each type of substance available for crowns. Ceramic and porcelain are usually the choices but we also work with gold or other metals for a durable support option for your teeth.
Advantages of Dental Crowns
Each crown covers a tooth’s surface to repair any damage and to protect the rest of your mouth and teeth. Initially we place a temporary crown while the permanent one is being prepared in the lab. On your second visit, we install the permanent crown and you are ready to go.
Cost of Dental Crowns
The cost of a crown has a number of variables.
- Preliminary preparation
- Whether a root canal is warranted
- Whether a post and/or care is required
- Type of crown selected, gold versus porcelain
- Number of crowns to be placed.
