A ceramometal or
porcelain crown or bridge is
placed when a tooth or teeth
become brittle from large
restorations, endodontic
treatment (root canal) or
other causes. The natural
tooth has to be shaped so
that the crown can be fitted
over the tooth to help
prevent fracture of the
tooth.
Dr. Sharp is very
conservative and will not
recommend a crown unless it
is warranted. Even though
crowns are made of metal and
ceramics, it is still
necessary to brush and
floss. Teeth with crowns are
still susceptible to decay
underneath the crown if not
properly maintained. |
