What Is a Dental Crown?

In this video, Dr. Victor Apel, a dedicated cosmetic dentist in Melbourne discusses how dental crowns, or caps, can help restore a damaged tooth.

A dental crown, or cap, as some people call it, is a restoration that protects and covers the tooth. That may happen for several reasons. The tooth may be broken down, largely decayed, had a root canal, and all of these things help to protect the tooth or save that tooth for the person for their whole life.

If you or someone you love is suffering from a damaged tooth, contact Dr. Victor C. Apel at Designing Smiles Dentistry in Melbourne, FL, for a free consultation to learn how restorative treatments like dental crowns can enhance your smile, restore your function, and improve your oral health. Call now and let us give you something to smile about.

Dr. Apel has been in practice in Melbourne since 1988. Originally from Louisville, Kentucky, he graduated from the University of Louisville’s School of Dental Medicine, a facility for training physicians and dentists.
