Porcelain Crowns - Palm Beach Smiles
 |
“Choosing the right (and best) dentist was not easy. I spent months evaluating the area's top dentists and decided on Dr. Barr. After visiting his office, checking his credentials, and looking at before and after pictures of his patients, the decision was easy.” — Michael Altshuler |
Do you have large stained fillings? Do you have existing crowns that have a dark line at the gumline or look unnatural, like "chiclets"?
You may need a crown for the following reasons:
 | Your tooth has a large cavity. |
| Your tooth is broken or has a large chip or fracture. |
| Your tooth has had root canal therapy. |
| Your tooth has a large, weak filling. |
| To replace a failing or unacceptable existing crown. |
| For cosmetic improvement. |
Dental Crowns can be made of several different materials each of which may be indicated for different situations:
| "Porcelain Fused to Metal" (A metal substructure with a porcelain covering) |
| All-Ceramic (Porcelain with no metal) |
| Gold |
The trend is towards reducing or eliminating metal in dentistry. The All-Ceramic Crowns are state of the art. They appear very natural and have the advantage of being bonded to the tooth for strength. Since there is no metal substructure, they don't have the "black line syndrome" at the gum line.
Dr. Michael Barr has dedicated himself to creating beautiful smiles with the latest porcelain or all-ceramic dental crowns. If you're in Boynton Beach or Palm Beach County, Porcelain Crowns may be your answer to getting your own "Palm Beach Smile!"
