A crown can give a damaged tooth many more years of service. It fits over the whole visible tooth, blocking further cracks and wear.
Dunedin patients are about 18.3 miles from Pier Dental in a straight line. Dr. Brittany Pierpont explains the schedule early, since crowns usually take two visits.
When one is recommended
Large fillings, cracks and root canals are the common reasons.
We show you the X-ray so you see what we see.

Root canals and their crowns
After the infected nerve is removed, the tooth is sealed and then capped.
The crown helps it withstand chewing.

Partial coverage
Onlays and inlays repair part of the tooth and keep more of it.
They suit teeth that need more than a filling but less than a crown.

About Dunedin
Dunedin once had the largest fleet of sailing vessels in the state. Its dock made it an important trading center.
Long-lasting craft has always mattered there, and we hold the same view of dental work. A good crown is built to stay.
Phone (727) 363-6169 for a crown consultation. We are glad to walk through CareCredit and the savings plan too.
