Dental Crowns / Caps
Miami Beach, FL

Dental crowns, or caps, encase the entire visible part of a tooth (above the gum line). Crowns can be made out of ceramics like porcelain, gold or metal alloys, or a combination of both materials.

Dental caps are used to improve the cosmetic appearance of a tooth, to strengthen a tooth, or to restore a tooth to its natural shape.

Teeth with excessive wear or cracks can benefit from being covered by a dental crown. Crowns offer an advantage over fillings in that they can be crafted to fit precisely on your tooth.

Dental crowns as a strictly cosmetic solution can be a poor choice. Sometimes a more conservative procedure, such as porcelain veneers, can satisfy the cosmetic needs. However, when used simultaneously to strengthen or restore a tooth, they are very effective.
