4 Top front teeth crowns

Four upper front tooth crowns are custom restorations that cover prepared teeth to restore structure, shape, colour, or function.

The mouth contains teeth, gingiva, enamel, dentine, pulp, periodontal tissues, and oral lining. The symptom or treatment named here concerns one or more of those structures.

Use gentle oral hygiene, avoid irritating the area, and note its location, timing, triggers, and changes. A dental examination may include inspection, tooth testing, gum measurements, photographs, or a targeted X-ray.

Arrange dental care for persistent pain, swelling, bleeding, sensitivity, a broken tooth, or a change that does not settle. Seek urgent help for fever, facial swelling, uncontrolled bleeding, or difficulty breathing or swallowing.

Ask which tissue is affected, what findings support the diagnosis, whether imaging or testing is needed, which treatments preserve healthy tissue, and what changes require an urgent return.
