Having genes that deliver crooked teeth is far more common than you may realize. In fact, research has proven that in the United States, at least four million people at a time are wearing braces, and those are just the ones who sought out treatment for their misaligned dentition. If you or your child struggle with dental misalignment and you’re thinking about seeking orthodontic treatment, you are not alone.
A dental crown is a cap made from metal, porcelain, ceramic, or another type of material to strengthen a tooth that has been damaged. It is also used for restoring a tooth that has been lost. To have your crown made, your dentists will first take an impression. When the crown has been created, the dentists will cement it onto the tooth to keep it in place and restore your smile.
