Dental Crowns

What Are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns are custom-made caps placed over damaged, weakened, or worn teeth. They cover the visible part of the tooth to restore its shape, strength, and function. Crowns can also improve the tooth’s appearance by matching the color and shape of the surrounding teeth.

Covering the Imperfection

Dental crowns at Desert Pearl Dentistry in Rancho Mirage are custom-made caps that cover damaged or weakened teeth. Designed to fit securely over the tooth, a crown helps restore its shape, strength, and function. It also blends with your natural teeth, giving you a durable and natural-looking solution for teeth that need extra protection.

Who Can Benefit From a Dental Crown?

Dental crowns are ideal for individuals with broken, decayed, or heavily worn teeth. If a tooth is too damaged for a dental filling or other restorative treatment, a crown provides the strength and durability needed for long-term function. At Desert Pearl Dentistry, crowns are carefully designed to match the size, shape, and color of your natural teeth for a secure fit.

Restoring and Protecting a Damaged Tooth

Dental crowns can help people with broken, decayed, or worn teeth. When a dental filling cannot provide enough support, a crown covers the weakened tooth to restore its shape, strength, and function. Desert Pearl Dentistry designs each crown to match the size, shape, and color of the surrounding teeth.

TOOTH DECAY AFFECTS NEARLY 90% OF ADULTS

Tooth decay is common, and treating a weakened tooth before the damage grows may help preserve more of its natural structure.

“Nearly 90% of adults ages 20 to 64 years have had decay in their teeth, a percentage that has not changed significantly between the 1999–2004 and 2011–2016 NHANES cycles.”
