Even those people who have been diligent when it comes to dental care find that with age, their teeth become weaker. For all of those individuals who weren’t quite so vigilant – and those with a genetic makeup that left them with weaker teeth – decay, wear and tear, fillings and injuries can lead to significant weakening. Left without proper treatment, cracks in the enamel, discoloration and other problems can build up and eventually affect your oral and overall health.

Your smile might be corrected through the use of dental crowns. How can you tell if this procedure is the best option? The best way to decide is to visit with the dentist, but you can also ask yourself the following questions:
- Are any existing crowns loose?
- Are there stains and discoloration on any teeth?
- Have you already tried metal or composite fillings unsuccessfully?
- Would any of your teeth benefit from reinforcement?
- Is your overall dental health affected by a weakened bite?
