Crowns

Dental crowns are typically used to cover or replace a tooth that has been damaged or decayed. They provide a protective layer and can restore the tooth's shape, size, and strength. There are several types of dental crowns available, including ceramic, porcelain, metal, and resin.

However, dental crowns can potentially cause harm if they are not used correctly. Improperly placed crowns can cause damage to the tooth's nerve, leading to pain and sensitivity. Additionally, crowns can trap bacteria and lead to gum disease if not properly maintained through regular dental hygiene practices.

This is why it is important to seek out an experienced dentist like Dr. Hyder, who can provide personalized care and ensure that your dental crown is properly placed and maintained. With the right care, dental crowns can be an effective and safe solution for dental restoration.
