Dentists use dental crowns and full mouth reconstruction to help patients who have missing or discolored teeth due to gum disease, tooth decay, infection or injury.

Roots that project downward from the visible portion of your teeth anchor them in your jawbones. Each tooth contains an inner portion called the pulp, which extends into the tooth roots via pulp canals. An abscessed tooth refers to an infection in or around the root of a tooth.

A dental crown is like a form-fitting cap placed over a tooth; it can restore both the appearance and function of a damaged tooth.
