Crowns

Hornsby Dentist information about Crowns: One of the interesting things that dentists face in today’s society is that many of us are keeping a majority if not all of our teeth well into old age. This can be contributed to the improvement of overall oral hygiene through public awareness and national initiated schemes such as fluoridation. However as we keep many of our teeth, unfortunately, there are some instances when our teeth need a helping hand to withstand the rigors of everyday life. In some circumstances compromised teeth may require treatment to protect it from further breakdown and ensure continued pain free function while at the same time be aesthetically pleasing. Although as dentists we endeavour to be conservative in our treatment, sometimes it is necessary to suggest to patients to possibility of a crown to protect the remaining damaged tooth structure. It does so by totally covering the remaining tooth and to prevent any future damage. Many people have heard of crowns, however are unsure of when a crown is indicated.

Hornsby Dental Crowns

Abour Crowns and Bridges A crown is a dental restoration that involves entirely covering a tooth with an extremely protective material that is resistant to fractures, extreme temperatures and acidic foods. Everyday activities such as chewing can put stress on our teeth, and over time this may manifest as visible signs of wear and tear. Although almost unnoticeable to the untrained eye, your dentist may notice faint fracture lines through your teeth, as well as generalised erosion of the surfaces. These are an artificial weak point in the tooth, and if you chew or bite together just a bit too hard, you can accidentally break off part of the tooth. To avoid this unnecessary trauma, your dentist may recommend a crown for the tooth. This will enhance its strength.
