Cosmetic Crowns at Wilshire Center Dental Group
At Wilshire Center Dental Group, we specialize in creating stunning, natural-looking smiles with cosmetic crowns. Whether you need to restore a damaged tooth, improve its appearance, or enhance your overall smile, our custom-designed crowns provide a durable and aesthetic solution.
What Are Cosmetic Crowns?
Cosmetic crowns, also known as dental caps, are tooth-shaped coverings placed over a tooth to restore its strength, shape, size, and appearance. Unlike traditional crowns, cosmetic crowns prioritize aesthetics, offering a seamless blend with your natural teeth. Crafted from high-quality materials such as porcelain or ceramic, these crowns mimic the color and translucency of real teeth.
Benefits of Cosmetic Crowns
- Natural Appearance: Designed to match the size, shape, and color of your natural teeth.
- Durable and Long-Lasting: Resistant to chipping, staining, and wear.
- Strength and Protection: Reinforces weak or damaged teeth.
- Custom Fit: Precisely tailored for comfort and functionality.
- Improved Confidence: Enhances the beauty of your smile.
Who Can Benefit from Cosmetic Crowns?
Cosmetic crowns are ideal for patients looking to:
- Restore a tooth damaged by decay or trauma.
- Cover a tooth with severe discoloration or stains.
- Replace a large filling when not enough natural tooth remains.
- Protect a cracked or weakened tooth from further damage.
- Conceal misshapen or uneven teeth.
- Complete a dental implant.
The Cosmetic Crown Process
-
Consultation and Evaluation
Our dentist will assess your oral health, discuss your goals, and recommend the best type of crown for your needs. -
Preparation
The damaged tooth is gently reshaped to accommodate the crown. If necessary, we’ll remove decay or perform additional treatments to ensure a healthy foundation. -
Impression and Design
We take detailed impressions of your teeth to create a custom crown that fits perfectly. You’ll receive a temporary crown while your permanent one is fabricated. -
Placement
Once your crown is ready, we’ll bond it securely to your tooth and make final adjustments for comfort and alignment.
