Porcelain Crowns in Alexandria, VA
A dental crown is a protective covering for a damaged tooth. Sometimes called a cap, a crown completely covers a tooth that is unsightly or decaying, protecting the remaining tooth and covering sensitive nerves that cause pain. Dental crowns are also necessary when there is not enough tooth structure remaining to support a filling.
Dental crowns used to be made only of durable, but obvious and unattractive, metal. Now, our patients in the Alexandria–Mt. Vernon area can choose porcelain crowns or ceramic crowns that share the strength of metal but are designed and color-matched to blend in with your other teeth, providing a strong, yet natural-looking covering.
If you are in the Mt. Vernon – Alexandria Virginia area, trust Dr. James Geren, Dr. Zeyad Mady, Dr. Aishwarya Abbareddy, and Dr. Tyler Garlisi to provide you with expert care for your dental crown!
