Dental crown repair addresses issues with crowns that have become damaged, loose, or discolored over time. This treatment aims to restore the crown’s functionality and aesthetics, preserving the tooth beneath.
Minor damage, such as small chips or cracks, can often be repaired using composite resin or bonding materials. For more significant damage, the crown may need to be replaced entirely. Dentists remove the damaged crown, assess the underlying tooth, and fabricate a new crown for optimal fit and appearance.
The repair process begins with a thorough evaluation to determine the cause of the damage and the most suitable solution. Advanced technologies, such as CAD/CAM systems, allow for precise and efficient crown repair or replacement.
By addressing crown issues promptly, dental crown repair ensures continued protection for the tooth and maintains the overall appearance of the smile.
