Dental cap is also known as dental crown and it covers the entire visible portion of tooth and thus becomes its new outer surface. A dental crown is mainly implanted in the case of a substantial tooth loss due to accident or decay caused by some dental disease. Dental caps strengthen the tooth by holding the weak or cracked teeth.
