It's rare for most people to have perfect teeth. While brushing and flossing regularly, and coming in for regular cleanings can certainly go a long way to maintaining a healthy smile, unfortunately, issues such as decay or infection weaken a tooth so much that even a dental filling just won't cut it.
Crowns are typically used to restore a tooth's function and appearance following a restorative procedure such as a root canal. When decay in a tooth has become so advanced that large portions of the tooth must be removed, crowns are often used to restore the tooth. In our office we have a technology known as CEREC.
