Porcelain Crowns
Dental Crowns are a type of dental restoration that completely covers a natural tooth. A damaged or severely decayed tooth may create cosmetic imperfections, become a source of sensitivity, or lead to significant pain. Dental crowns reinforce and restore the structural integrity of a tooth while preserving as much of the natural tooth structure as possible. Crowns can be made from a variety of materials including porcelain, gold, and zirconia. Dr. Seider frequently utilizes Zirconia crowns for his patients to achieve the most natural appearance. An All Zirconia crown is virtually unbreakable. They are 3 times stronger than most metal crowns and also require less than half the tooth reduction of any other porcelain crown. As a cosmetic dentist, Dr. Seider knows the pitfalls of this procedure and has the ability to provide each patient with beautiful results due to his extensive experience and knowledge of the different porcelain products available for your unique application. During your consultation Dr. Seider will select the most appropriate type of dental crown available. Our office specializes in all Zirconia crowns. We offer BruxZir Full-Strength, New! BruxZir Esthetic, Obsidian All-Ceramic, IPS e.max, Lava Zirconia, and Bilayered Clinical Zirconia.
