Restore Cracked or Damaged Teeth

A crown is a protective cap that covers all visible surfaces of the affected tooth. For optimal comfort and aesthetics, your crown can be customized in color, shape and size. Dr. Shunnarah understands the careful blend of artistry and skill it takes to create beautiful, long-lasting crowns. A crown can be used in a variety of situations, including the following:

• To repair a tooth after severe decay
• To restore a cracked or injured tooth
• As a dental implant restoration in tooth replacement
• Following a root canal treatment
• To correct teeth that are discolored, misshapen or gapped

Dental Inlays and Onlays

When there is an area of tooth damage that is too large for a dental filling but not extensive enough to merit a full crown, an inlay or onlay can provide an excellent solution. Inlays are similar to a filling and are placed inside the cusp tips of a tooth. Onlays are a more substantial type of restoration, as they may extend over the tooth cusps. Dr. Shunnarah will carefully explain your options for inlays and onlays, as there are various types of materials that can be used depending on your clinical needs and personal preferences.
