Porcelain Crowns Fort Myers

Some common dental restoration procedures in which porcelain may be used are: fillings, caps (crowns), and veneers. Although other materials could be used, porcelain is the material of choice for some people due to aesthetics. Unlike metal filings, they are much more attractive. Porcelain fillings, however, are not as strong. Since they’re brittle they are susceptible to breakage. There are also several materials available for dental crowns (caps). Porcelain is one of the choices. A dental crown (cap) totally encases the tooth in order to improve its shape, size, strength and overall appearance. Some reasons dental crowns are used to protect weak or cracked teeth and to cover severely discolored teeth. Porcelain veneers are similar to caps (crowns). The difference is that instead of the tooth being totally encased like with a crown, a porcelain veneer is bonded to the front of the tooth.
