If 60%+ of the natural clinical crown is missing, a custom crown is recommended.
Why Crowns & Bridges Matter
Missing or damaged teeth don’t just affect your smile — they can also impact your bite, chewing ability, and the health of your surrounding teeth. When a permanent tooth is lost, nearby teeth may shift out of position, leading to misalignment, jaw issues, and further tooth loss over time.
In some cases, a tooth may still be present but severely compromised by a fracture, large cavity, or crack. If 60% or more of the natural clinical crown of the tooth is missing, the tooth is no longer strong enough to function on its own. In these situations, a custom dental crown is recommended to restore stability, protect the remaining tooth structure, and prevent future complications.
At Dentistry 2000 in Oceanside, we restore both the function and appearance of your smile with custom Zirconia crowns and bridges, designed using the latest Dandy 3Shape scanning technology for unmatched precision and fit.
