Porcelain Crowns
With all of the modern advances in dental materials and methods, there’s no reason why patients shouldn’t have highly esthetic crowns that are durable and long-lasting. Dr. Mohr is pleased to offer the latest crown technology to his patients, including all-porcelain crowns that preserve, protect, and enhance the beauty of front teeth.
You may have heard a crown referred to as a cap, because it fits over a tooth similarly to a baseball cap on a head. A crown can repair a broken, cracked, or decayed tooth, as well as a tooth that’s been treated with a root canal. In the past, crowns were created from dark metals, which detracted from the esthetics of a smile. Now, we have strong, durable porcelains capable of withstanding tremendous biting forces. Dr. Mohr often places all-porcelain crowns to enhance a smile, especially on the teeth that show when a patient smiles.
To receive a crown, you’ll need two visits. First, Dr. Mohr will conservatively shape the tooth to allow room for the restoration. He takes impressions and photographs and sends them to our laboratory. The laboratory uses precise color-matching techniques to create a crown that blends seamlessly with neighboring teeth. Dr. Mohr bonds the crown in a second visit, and you leave our Massapequa Park office with a beautifully restored smile!
We invite you to discover the difference a devoted dental practice will make in your healthcare. Patients from as far away as New York City and NewJersey visit us to receive Dr. Mohr's exceptional care. Call today to reserve your appointment with Dr. Mohr. Our Massapequa Park dental office has served Massapequa, Seaford, Wantagh, Lindenhurst, and Farmingdale families with exceptional dental care since 1986.
