Dental crowns at Morgan Dental Care in Gorham, ME, provide you with a reliable solution for damaged, weakened or misshapen teeth. Our team creates custom, natural-looking crowns that protect your teeth and enhance your smile while keeping your comfort a top priority.
What Are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are custom-made “caps” that completely cover and protect your tooth. They’re crafted to look and feel just like your natural teeth, blending seamlessly with your smile. At Morgan Dental Care, we understand that every patient’s needs are unique, so we tailor our approach for your best outcome.
A dental crown may be recommended for several reasons, including:
- Restoring a tooth after a large cavity or root canal
- Protecting a weak or cracked tooth from breaking
- Repairing a tooth that’s worn down or chipped
- Holding together parts of a fractured tooth
- Covering a dental implant or supporting a bridge
- Enhancing the look of a misshapen or discolored tooth
What Is The Dental Crown Process?
Getting a dental crown doesn’t have to be stressful. At Morgan Dental Care in Gorham, we make the process simple and comfortable from start to finish.
