Your dentist will likely recommend a crown when there isn’t enough tooth structure left to support a filling or inlay. Dental crowns are also a safe and excellent solution when your tooth has been significantly weakened by a crack, previous dental work, etc. Dental crowns reinforce a damaged tooth and prevent it from further damage.
Dental crowns are created from many materials, but North Bay Smiles in Petaluma, California, prefers porcelain because of its durability and natural appearance. While porcelain dental crowns can last up to 15 years, sometimes problems can crop up before they are due for replacement. Dr. Yvonne Szyperski shares common dental issues and how to address them.
The fit and longevity of your crown depend on many factors, including the dentist’s skills, biocompatibility, dental health, material used, and oral hygiene. If any of these aspects are compromised, your dental crown will give in before its expiry date.
These are common issues you will likely experience with your crown.
