What Are Dental Crowns?
A crown is a custom-made restoration that completely covers the visible portion of a tooth. It protects teeth that are too damaged for a filling but strong enough to avoid extraction.
We offer multiple types of crowns at Brite White Dental:
- Ceramic crowns – durable, natural-looking restorations ideal for strength and aesthetics
- Porcelain crowns – highly aesthetic crowns that mimic natural enamel
- Metal-free, biocompatible options – chosen to align with our holistic philosophy
