What’s the difference between a cap and a crown?

Great question. They are the same, in the past, we may have heard of “caps” when referring to a crown, but they are one and the same.

Is porcelain good for crowns?

The porcelain material has a naturally whiter color which blends better with the shade of your organic teeth.

Can I whiten my porcelain crowns?

The answer is no. Traditional bleaching treatments do not work on porcelain or most sticky materials.

Do porcelain crowns look natural?

Porcelain crowns are made to match the shape, size, and color of your teeth giving you a natural, long-lasting beautiful smile.

Porcelain Crowns

A porcelain crown (caps) that has been cemented into place essentially becomes the new outer surface for the tooth, restoring a tooth to its original shape. A crown can help to strengthen a tooth by way of being a hard outer shell that encases the tooth structure that lies within it.

For both of these reasons, porcelain crowns are routinely made for teeth that have broken, worn excessively, or else have had large portions destroyed by tooth decay. Porcelain crowns are made to match the shape, size, and color or your teeth giving you a natural, long-lasting beautiful smile.

Porcelain Crown Treatment Procedures

A crown procedure usually requires two appointments. Your first appointment will include taking several highly accurate moulds (or impressions) that will be used to create your custom crown. A mold will also be used to create a temporary crown which will stay on your tooth for approximately two weeks until your new crown is fabricated by a dental laboratory.
