In the past, when a crown was prescribed by your dentist to restore a tooth, it was often done in multiple visits. One of the most exciting new technologies available in dentistry is the application of computer aided design techniques to restore individual teeth. E4D can be used to produce beautiful crowns, inlays, veneers and on-lays. E4D is a chair side computer device that allows the dentist to fabricate long-lasting, aesthetic restorations to replace damaged tooth structure while you are in the surgery. The E4D Technology method helps to avoid temporary restorations, impressions, a second episode of numbing and the typical two week wait for fitting of the final restoration. E4D allows your restoration to be made and inserted in a single appointment. All You Need to Know about Crowns Dental crowns are synthetic caps, usually made of porcelain, placed on the top of a tooth. They are a restoration that covers a tooth to restore it to its normal shape and size, which strengthens and improves the appearance of your damaged tooth. When your tooth is broken down and fillings are unable to solve your problem, crowns are necessary in order to restore function to your tooth. If your tooth decay or dental damage is too extensive for veneers, direct composite bonding or other conservative treatments are not viable treatment options; your dentist may consult you about dental crowns. Whether the dental crowns are used to restore a damaged tooth or to create a lifelike tooth replacement for an implant, crowns can be fabricated in your dentist's office for a one visit restoration. All porcelain crowns are used in order to eliminate noticeable grey lines around crowns that are normally seen in other brands. Porcelain crowns are the best choice in restoring your smile without creating significant difference in appearance between your other teeth. There are also porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns that provide a strong, durable and esthetic treatment option.
