Crowns
What are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns, offered at Alfonso Dental Miami, are custom-made caps designed to cover a damaged or decayed tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Located in the Flagler Street area of Miami, FL, our practice provides high-quality crowns that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Whether you need to protect a weakened tooth, cover a dental implant, or improve the appearance of a discolored or misshapen tooth, Dr. Jossue Alfonso can create a crown that meets your specific needs.
Benefits of Dental Crowns at Alfonso Dental Miami
Dental crowns offer a robust and long-lasting solution for a variety of dental issues. By encasing the entire visible portion of a tooth, crowns provide protection from further damage and decay, which can be particularly important after a root canal or when dealing with a large cavity. Crowns also help restore the function of your teeth, allowing you to bite and chew with ease. Aesthetically, crowns can dramatically improve the appearance of a tooth, enhancing your smile and boosting your confidence.
Consequences of Not Addressing Damaged or Decayed Teeth
Failing to address a damaged or decayed tooth can lead to a range of complications. Without the protection of a crown, a weakened tooth is at risk of further deterioration, which can result in severe pain, infection, or even tooth loss. Additionally, a tooth that is chipped, cracked, or misshapen can negatively impact the overall harmony of your smile, affecting both your appearance and self-esteem. By opting for a dental crown, you can prevent these issues and enjoy a healthier, more attractive smile.
