An all-ceramic restoration is a crown made of dental ceramic sometimes called dental porcelain. It is a biocompatible, aesthetic, and sturdy option for restoring a damaged or decayed tooth. Dental crowns repair broken, decayed, or otherwise flawed teeth. Some of the most common applications of dental crowns include

• Restoring the shape of a chipped or broken tooth
• Strengthening a weak or worn tooth
• Restoring a tooth after significant decay
• Holding together pieces of a broken tooth
• Replacing one or more missing teeth
• Making cosmetic improvements to severely flawed teeth
• As the final step in a root canal
