Dental Crowns

A broken, damaged, or lost crown can leave your tooth vulnerable to pain, infection, and further damage. At Dentcare Now, we provide emergency dental crown services in Fairfax, VA, to restore and protect your tooth quickly. If you’re experiencing discomfort due to a fractured or missing crown, contact us immediately for urgent care.

A dental crown is a cap placed over a damaged tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. A crown may be necessary if:

• A previous crown has fallen off.
• A tooth is cracked or broken.
• A large filling has failed, leaving the tooth exposed.
• There is severe decay that requires reinforcement.

Seeking immediate treatment helps prevent further damage and protects your oral health.
