A dental crown restores a tooth that has been weakened or damaged, covering it completely to rebuild its strength, shape and appearance. At our Carrollwood practice, Dr. Mustafa Adel crafts crowns that look indistinguishable from natural teeth while protecting the tooth beneath for years to come.

Crowns are recommended when a tooth has too much damage for a simple filling. This includes teeth with large old fillings, significant decay, cracks, or teeth that have had root canal treatment and need protection from fracture. A crown holds the tooth together and lets it function normally again.

We take a conservative approach even when placing a crown. Dr. Adel removes only the structure necessary to seat the restoration properly, preserving as much healthy tooth as possible. This protects the long-term health of the tooth while still providing a strong, lasting result.

Modern crowns are made from high-quality ceramics that mimic the translucency and color of natural enamel. Each one is matched carefully to your surrounding teeth, so the finished crown blends in seamlessly and no one can tell which tooth was restored.

A well-made crown is durable. With good oral hygiene and regular checkups, a crown can last many years, functioning just like a natural tooth. Caring for it is simple: brush, floss and keep up with your routine visits.

Whether you need a single crown or several as part of a larger plan, the goal is the same: a restoration that protects the tooth and looks completely natural. Dr. Adel will explain your options and recommend the approach best suited to your tooth.
