White Crowns
The integrity of your teeth depends upon their health, strength, function, and appearance. A significant cavity or crack will compromise a tooth and lead to more significant problems if not treated promptly. In the past, metal and porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crowns restored health, but compromised beauty. As a cosmetic and restorative dentist, Dr. Lowe prefers to place all-porcelain, white crowns when possible.
For teeth that show when you smile or laugh, porcelain crowns provide a natural looking, yet durable and healthy restoration. Back teeth, however, must endure intense pressure expressed in biting and chewing. Dr. Lowe still places PFM and metal crowns when necessary. At your consultation, he'll explain his recommendations and the reason behind them.
All crowns require two visits to our office. At the first visit, Dr. Lowe will prepare your teeth and take an impression. He'll work with our trusted dental lab technicians to create your lifelike, durable crown while you wear a temporary restoration. In your second visit, Dr. Lowe will remove the temporary and secure the permanent crown in place.
