Dental Crowns in Tijuana
A damaged or weakened tooth can affect your ability to chew and may become more vulnerable to additional damage. A dental crown can help protect the remaining tooth structure while restoring its function and appearance.
Dental crowns are commonly used as part of restorative dentistry and may also be used together with dental implants.
What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a custom-made restoration that covers a damaged or weakened tooth. It is designed to restore the shape, strength and function of the tooth.
Crowns can be made from different dental materials depending on the location of the tooth, functional requirements and desired appearance.
When Are Dental Crowns Needed?
A dentist may recommend a crown when a tooth has:
- Significant damage or decay
- A large filling
- A crack or fracture
- Been treated with a root canal
- Lost a significant amount of tooth structure
- A need for improved shape or function
The appropriate treatment depends on the condition of the tooth.

The Dental Crown Process
Dental Evaluation
Your dentist will examine the tooth and determine whether a crown is the appropriate treatment.
Tooth Preparation
The tooth is prepared so the crown can fit securely over it.
Crown Design
Measurements and other information are used to create a restoration designed for your tooth.
Final Placement
The finished crown is placed and adjusted to provide a comfortable fit and natural function.
Dental Crowns and Dental Implants
Crowns can also be used to replace a missing tooth when supported by a dental implant. In this case, the implant acts as the foundation and the crown serves as the visible replacement tooth.
Your dentist can explain which type of restoration is appropriate for your situation.
