Why are crowns necessary?

Dental crowns are an essential treatment option for a wide range of conditions that compromise the strength and integrity of a tooth. At Naylors Court Dental Partners in Pikesville, MD, Dr. Mohit Virmani and Dr. Jennifer Virmani frequently recommend crowns to restore and protect teeth that have cracked, fractured, or broken down over time.

Teeth often suffer structural damage as a result of large existing fillings, advanced tooth decay, nighttime teeth grinding (bruxism), or trauma from a misaligned bite. When significant tooth structure is compromised, a crown is prescribed to safeguard the remaining natural tooth. By completely encasing the visible portion of the tooth, the crown creates a durable, bracing seal that absorbs bite pressure, prevents further breakage, and restores full chewing function. Beyond protecting your oral health, custom crowns seamlessly blend in to enhance the overall aesthetic of your smile.
