Dental Crowns

Restore Your Tooth’s Strength with King Dental

Dental crowns play a crucial role in reviving a tooth that  is decayed or susceptible to fracture. At King Dental in Salem, Oregon, Dr. King skillfully uses dental crowns to protect a compromised tooth, giving it a natural appearance and feel. This process not only extends the life of your tooth but also restores its  pristine beauty. Restoring a compromised tooth with a crown can prevent other issues, including the need for a root canal or extraction.

Procedure of Placing a Dental Crown

The dental crown procedure begins with Dr. King  removing cavities and failing fillings.  New 'buildup' material restores enough structure that the tooth can be shaped for the new crown.The crown is then securely cemented, providing a sturdy, resilient cover that protects the original tooth from further damage, including fracture and failure..

What Will Your Dental Crown Look Like?

At King Dental, we offer natural-looking and strong all porcelain or (ceramic) dental crowns. If you so desire, Dr. King will guide you in choosing the suitable material tailored to your needs.

Several situations might necessitate a dental crown:

  • Physical trauma resulting in large chips and cracks can leave a tooth vulnerable and in need of the structural support a crown provides.
  • The failure of large, dental fillings may require a crown for effective tooth restoration.
