It’s estimated that 90% of cavities develop in the back teeth. These teeth are hard to reach. It’s also human nature to spend a little extra time cleaning the front teeth that others can see. Plus, they contain uneven surfaces, which tend to trap the food particles and bacteria responsible for destructive plaque. However, the front teeth (incisors) are not impervious to the effects of damaging tooth decay and gum disease. Furthermore, they may be vulnerable to injury caused by blows to the face during sports, falls, and other trauma.
Serving Southern California and beyond, Beverly Hills Advanced Specialties of Dentistry expertly designs, fabricates, and places dental crowns to strengthen damaged teeth and protect them from further and future damage. If decay or other trauma is not addressed promptly, it can threaten the tooth’s structure, resulting in the loss of the tooth. Fortunately, our practice is led by one of the world’s foremost authorities in endodontic procedures: Dr. Fanny Yacaman. As an endodontist, Dr. Yacaman specializes in challenging cases. She has the considerable expertise to “save” even the most damaged teeth. Often, crowns follow nonsurgical root canal therapy or surgical endodontic treatments. The crown presents the “finishing” touch, helping to protect and support the sustained strength of the treated tooth.
Our patients also have peace of mind that their crowns will look like “real teeth.” Our practice is also led by Dr. Frank Vidjak. As a prosthodontist, Dr. Vidjak specializes in reconstructing the teeth and other tissues and structures of the mouth, jaws, and face. You benefit from Dr. Vidjak’s focused knowledge and experience in rebuilding teeth with restorative dentistry and our use of the highest-quality, biocompatible materials. Our crowns are made to last and be indistinguishable in form and function from naturally healthy and stunning teeth. This facet of our expertise in restorative dentistry is particularly important when discussing options to reconstruct the front teeth, which are so central to the appearance of a prominent feature of your face – your smile!
