🦷 Do You Really Need a Crown—Or Can It Wait?
Just because a tooth is not hurting doesn’t always mean it’s healthy.
A crown may be recommended when a tooth is:
* cracked
* weakened by a large filling
* breaking down
* worn from grinding or clenching
* at risk of fracturing further
The goal of a crown is to protect the tooth before a bigger problem happens. Waiting too long can sometimes mean a simple fix turns into a root canal, extraction, or more costly treatment.
At Sims Dentistry, we take time to show you what we see, explain why treatment is being recommended, and help you understand your options—so you can feel confident in your care.
If you’ve ever wondered whether you really need a crown, we’re here to help.
