Dental crowns are a cornerstone of restorative dentistry, offering both functional and aesthetic solutions for compromised teeth. At NuBrace, the focus is on providing high-quality crowns that seamlessly integrate with your natural teeth, ensuring durability and a pleasing appearance.

What Are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns, often referred to as "caps," are custom-made restorations that cover the entire visible portion of a tooth. They are designed to restore the tooth's shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are commonly used to:

  • Protect a weak tooth from breaking

  • Restore an already broken or severely worn tooth

  • Cover and support a tooth with a large filling

  • Hold a dental bridge in place

  • Cover misshaped or severely discolored teeth

  • Cover a dental implant

The NuBrace Approach to Dental Crowns

NuBrace emphasizes precision and patient comfort in their crown procedures. The process typically involves

  1. Consultation and Examination: Assessing the tooth's condition and determining the suitability for a crown.

  2. Tooth Preparation: Reshaping the tooth to accommodate the crown.

  3. Impression Taking: Capturing accurate molds of the tooth for custom crown fabrication.

  4. Temporary Crown Placement: Protecting the prepared tooth while the permanent crown is being made.

  5. Permanent Crown Placement: Fitting and cementing the custom-made crown onto the tooth.

NuBrace's commitment to using advanced materials ensures that the crowns are both durable and aesthetically pleasing, closely matching the natural teeth's color and translucency.
