You Might Need a Dental Crown: Here’s Why
Dental problems can range from minor cavities to severely damaged teeth. In many such cases, your dentist might recommend a dental crown—also known as tooth capping—to restore function, aesthetics, and strength to your natural tooth. If you’re experiencing discomfort while chewing, have visible tooth cracks, or recently had a root canal, this blog will help you understand why a dental crown might be necessary and how it can save your smile.
At Dr. Gogia’s Super Specialty Dental Care Centre in Rohtak, we specialize in painless, durable, and aesthetic dental crowns designed specifically for your needs.
What is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that is placed over a damaged, decayed, or treated tooth. It covers the entire visible part of the tooth above the gum line, acting as a protective shell that restores the tooth’s shape, size, strength, and appearance.
Crowns can be made from several materials:
Porcelain or ceramic (for a natural look)
Metal alloys (for durability)
Porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM)
Zirconia (aesthetic and strong)

Signs You Might Need a Dental Crown
1. You’ve Had a Root Canal
After a root canal, the tooth becomes brittle and more prone to fracture. A dental crown protects the tooth and restores its chewing ability.
2. You Have a Cracked or Fractured Tooth
If your tooth is cracked due to trauma or biting something hard, a crown can hold the structure together and prevent further damage.
3. You Have a Large Filling
When a filling takes up more than half the tooth structure, it weakens the tooth. A crown can strengthen it and improve its longevity.
4. Your Tooth Is Severely Worn Down
Bruxism (teeth grinding), acid reflux, or poor oral habits can wear down teeth. Dental capping restores them to normal function and appearance.
5. You Want to Improve Your Smile Aesthetically
Crowns can cover discolored, misshapen, or uneven teeth. For many patients, especially those looking for a smile makeover, crowns are a great solution.
6. Your Dental Implant Needs a Cap
A crown is placed over a dental implant to serve as the visible tooth, completing the restoration.

How to Care for a Tooth with a Crown
Even though a crown is artificial, the tooth underneath still needs care.
Brush twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush
Floss daily to prevent gum issues around the crown
Avoid very hard or sticky foods that may dislodge the crown
Visit your dentist every 6 months for checkups and cleanings
