Save Your Tooth from Extraction with Dental Crown Treatment

Dental crowns are generally the go-to treatment for repairing damaged teeth. Dr. Jennifer Nation can repair and restore its usefulness by crowning a cracked, broken, or severely decayed tooth. In some cases, crowns for teeth can save compromised teeth from having to be removed. When possible, saving natural teeth is always a better alternative than losing them forever. Brookside Smiles Family and Cosmetic Dentistry offers dental crown treatment to our patients in Redlands, California, and nearby communities.

How Crowns are Used

Teeth can crack or break for any number of reasons. A weak, worn tooth may crack when chewing on hard food. You can break a tooth playing sports or in an auto accident. A damaged tooth is not only painful but also hard to use for biting and chewing. In its weakened state, it’s susceptible to infection and decay, putting healthy teeth at risk. These problems and more can be resolved through dental crown treatment.

Dental crowns are custom-made, porcelain caps that Dr. Nation can place over a damaged tooth to protect it from further damage. The crown completely covers the tooth, all the way to the gum line. In so doing, the crown: 

• Strengthens your tooth’s structure
• Protects it from further damage
• Keeps decay and infection at bay
• Repairs the tooth so it can be used
• Restores your tooth’s health and appearance

Your once-damaged tooth can become like new again with a dental crown.

Save Natural Teeth with Crown Treatment

Damaged teeth can’t repair themselves. Left unprotected, compromised teeth will continue to weaken and sustain further damage. Over time, they’ll become irreparable and need to be removed. In the meantime, they can put your mouth at risk of infection and decay. They can also cause painful chewing. 

Tooth crowns repair and restore damaged teeth to save them from extraction. Crowning a tooth is less costly than having it removed. Crowns also keep your smile intact for the future.
