A dental crown is a type of dental restoration that covers the entire surface of a tooth. Crowns are usually made from porcelain, ceramic, or metal. If you’re getting a crown to improve the appearance of your smile, then you’ll probably want one made from porcelain or ceramic since they can be color-matched to your natural teeth. Crowns are usually placed over existing teeth, but in some cases, they can be used to support a dental bridge. If you’re getting a crown to cover up a tooth that’s been damaged, your dentist will first prepare the tooth by filing it down and then take an impression of it.
