Restoration of Fractured Tooth Crowns

Restoring a tooth crown is necessary when it has been significantly damaged. In modern dentistry, there are several methods for restoring a fractured tooth crown. The choice of method depends on the extent of the tooth’s damage, the condition of the oral tissues, and the patient’s financial possibilities. Some of the methods include composite restoration, which is used for shallow damage without any signs of decay in the treated area. Another method is the use of glass fiber for restoration, especially for anterior teeth, to strengthen their crowns and prevent fracture. Glass fiber is also used for tooth reconstruction after root canal treatment. Porcelain crowns are also quite popular. This method of restoring a tooth can be performed only when a healthy root is stably anchored in the tooth socket.
