Your natural teeth are surprisingly resilient. But sometimes, they need a little help to maintain proper form and function. That’s why Dr. Papageorgiou offers comprehensive tooth restoration using custom fabricated porcelain crowns. You may need a new crown to help restore a damaged or decayed tooth, or to make your tooth stronger and improve its appearance. Porcelain crowns can also be used to cover teeth that are severely discolored or misshapen. Dr. Papageorgiou will examine your teeth to determine if a new porcelain crown is the best restorative option. If you need to rehabilitate a vulnerable tooth, schedule an appointment with Dr. Papageorgiou and Papageorgiou Dental Associates for your new porcelain crown today. Dr. Papageorgiou is a skilled restorative dentist, now proudly serving patients daily throughout Natick, MA, Framingham, Wayland, Sudbury, Wellesley, and the surrounding communities.
Do You Need a New Porcelain Crown?
Porcelain crowns not only duplicate the original tooth in function, but also in form. A new porcelain crown may be required to:
- Replace a large filling when there isn’t enough healthy tooth structure remaining
- Protect a weak tooth from fracturing
- Restore an already fractured tooth
- Complete a dental bridge
- Complete a dental implant
- Correct a discolored or misshapen tooth
- Protect a tooth that has undergone root canal therapy
Natick Porcelain Crown Appointments
Porcelain crowns are superior to metal (amalgam) crowns in both appearance and long term health benefits. On average, you can expect your new porcelain crown to last about fifteen years. The life span of your new crown will depend largely on how well you keep up good oral hygiene practices, and how often you attend routine dental checkups and cleanings. If you need a tooth restored, or if you need to replace an old restoration, schedule a porcelain crown appointment with Dr. Papageorgiou and Papageorgiou Dental Associates today. Dr. Papageorgiou is an experienced restorative dentist, now delivering quality care daily throughout Natick, MA, Framingham, Wayland, Sudbury, Wellesley, and the neighboring areas.
