Top 5 Compelling Benefits of Restoring Your Smile with Porcelain Dental Crowns
Your natural teeth are designed to last for life, but it’s not uncommon for damage or decay to happen. At Positive Image Dental, we are excited to offer high-quality dental crowns to restore significantly damaged teeth. Instead of extraction, dental crowns in Devonshire, Bermuda, rebuild your damaged tooth to its pre-damage state.
Benefits of porcelain crowns
Dental crowns can be created from several materials, including gold, composite resin, and porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM). Our office prefers porcelain crowns because of their perfect blend of aesthetics and durability.
Here’s what you’ll love about porcelain dental crowns.
- Natural-looking aesthetics: Porcelain crowns are virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth. Their color and translucency mimic natural enamel so closely that no one will guess you’ve had dental work. Whether laughing, smiling, or chatting away, your crown blends seamlessly with your smile, even when used for your front teeth.
- Durability: Porcelain crowns are designed to last several years. The material is resilient enough to withstand everyday chewing and biting. Porcelain crowns can last 10-15 years or longer with proper upkeep. It’s beauty backed by strength.
- Stain resistance: Your natural enamel has small pores that absorb stains from foods and drinks over time. This is the reason why your teeth become discolored or stained. Unlike natural enamel, porcelain is impervious. This property makes your crowns resistant to staining from coffee, tea, and wine. That means your smile stays bright year after year despite your love for morning coffee.
- Stronger teeth: If decay, cracks, or root canal treatment have weakened your tooth, a porcelain crown encases it to restore full function. Besides, a dental crown reinforces your tooth, making it resistant to future breakdowns. Stronger teeth mean fewer repairs, saving you time and money.
- Convenient maintenance: Dental crowns don’t require any special maintenance. Brush your teeth twice daily, and don’t forget to floss. Be thorough around the crown area because harmful bacteria tend to hide there. Also, don’t forget to visit your Devonshire dentist at least twice annually for dental check-ups and cleanings.
Placing a perfect crown means considering every detail of your tooth. This means we take into account the size, shape, and color of your tooth—missing any of these details can result in a crown that feels uncomfortable and looks fake. Our team of Drs. Ian Campbell, Christopher Allington, Lara Loescher and Faraz combine advanced technology with hands-on expertise to create dental crowns that fit perfectly and look like natural teeth.
