DR. DAVID KOPECKI: Full coverage restorations are also known as crowns are used in dentistry to reinstate the structure and integrity of a tooth. So if a tooth is badly broken down, then a crown maybe recommended to be placed on the tooth. There are many different ways that a crown can be made. Some have a metal base and there is porcelain baked on it. Some are all porcelain. And some have a ceramic base that porcelain is baked on. An impression is taken of the tooth and a temporary restoration is placed. The impression is sent to a dental laboratory with very specific instructions on shade and contours. A few weeks after that appointment, a patient would return and the temporary crown is then removed and the permanent crown is placed on the tooth.
