What is a dental crown?
At Mid-Columbia Dental, we specialize in restoring your smile’s function and aesthetics with custom porcelain crowns. A dental crown is a durable covering that fits snugly over a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its natural shape, size, and strength.
Our team prioritizes conservative approaches to dental care, ensuring that we preserve as much of your natural tooth structure as possible. We use the latest digital scanner technology to get the crowns perfectly precise, allowing them to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth for a natural-looking result.
Whether you’re in need of a crown to protect a weakened tooth, restore a decayed tooth, or enhance the appearance of your smile, our advanced techniques and materials allow us to deliver precise, long-lasting results. At Mid-Columbia Dental, we’re committed to helping you achieve a healthy, beautiful smile that lasts a lifetime.
Replace Amalgam Fillings with Dental Crowns
Say goodbye to amalgam fillings and revitalize your smile with custom dental crowns from Mid-Columbia Dental. Amalgam contains mercury, which poses a health risk to humans. These fillings, which are often dark-colored and detract from the appearance of your smile, have the potential to release toxins and may contribute to internal damage by causing cracks and fractures within the tooth structure.
By opting to replace your amalgam fillings with custom porcelain crowns, you not only improve your smile’s aesthetics but also eliminate potential exposure to harmful toxins, safeguarding your dental well-being in the process.
Schedule a consultation at our Kennewick or Pasco location today to discover how replacing amalgam fillings with porcelain crowns can rejuvenate your smile and enhance your oral health.
