Sugar Family Dental offers crowns and caps as part of their dental services to restore and protect damaged or weakened teeth. Crowns and caps are dental restorations that cover the entire visible portion of a tooth above the gumline, providing strength, durability, and improved aesthetics.

Crowns and caps are commonly used to address various dental issues, including:

1. Broken or Fractured Teeth: A crown or cap can restore the structure and function of a tooth that has been fractured or severely damaged due to trauma or decay.
2. Large Fillings: When a tooth has a large filling or extensive decay, a crown or cap can provide reinforcement and support to prevent further damage.
3. Weak or Worn Teeth: Teeth that are weakened due to wear and tear, grinding, or erosion can be strengthened and protected with a crown or cap.
4. Cosmetic Enhancements: Crowns and caps can improve the appearance of misshapen, discolored, or poorly aligned teeth, enhancing the overall smile aesthetics.

The process of getting a crown or cap typically involves the following steps:

1. Preparation: The dentist prepares the tooth by removing a portion of the enamel to create space for the crown or cap.
2. Impressions: An impression or mold of the prepared tooth is taken to create a custom-fitted crown or cap.
3. Temporary Crown: While the permanent crown is being fabricated, a temporary crown is placed to protect the tooth.
4. Placement: Once the permanent crown is ready, it is cemented or bonded onto the tooth, restoring its shape, function, and appearance.

Sugar Family Dental offers a range of crown materials to suit patients' preferences and needs. Crowns and caps are durable, long-lasting solutions that can significantly improve the strength, functionality, and aesthetics of damaged or compromised teeth, promoting oral health and confidence in one's smile.
