Dental Crowns
In need of dental crown treatment? Our holistic dentists in Grand Rapids, MI, offer porcelain crowns to restore teeth with significant decay. However, they may also be used to improve the appearance of teeth that don’t respond to traditional whitening.
Benefits of Dental Crowns
Dental crowns offer several benefits to your oral health and overall wellness.
​
Preserve Your Natural Teeth
Dental crowns are often used to treat teeth with significant decay. These tooth-shaped “caps” allow you to restore the strength, function, and appearance of your natural tooth. Treating decay in a timely manner also helps you avoid dental extraction.
​
Smile with Confidence
Our team will color-match your dental crown to blend in with the rest of your smile. This means that people won’t be able to tell which tooth has a porcelain dental crown. Instead, you’ll be able to smile with renewed confidence.
​
Support Other Dental Work
Porcelain crowns are often used to restore teeth after root canal therapy and dental implant placement. Likewise, they may also be used to anchor dental bridges. This versatility lends itself well to smile makeovers.
​
How to Care for Porcelain Crowns
Take care of your dental crown as you would the rest of your smile. Continue brushing your teeth twice a day for at least two minutes at a time. Also, floss once daily to remove food particles and plaque hiding between teeth.
Routine teeth cleaning visits with our team also help protect your smile in the long-term by allowing us to remove tartar deposits and detect any issues early. Likewise, avoid chewing ice, popcorn kernels, nuts, caramel, or other foods that are sticky and/or hard.
Please refer to our team for full care instructions.
