What Are Dental Crowns and When Are They Needed?

Dental crowns, often referred to as "caps," are custom-made coverings placed over a tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance. They are commonly recommended in cases where a tooth is severely decayed, cracked, or weakened. Crowns are also used to protect a tooth after a root canal or to support a dental bridge. When a filling isn’t sufficient, a crown provides the reinforcement necessary to maintain the tooth’s health.
