I will get a dental crown. Can you eat solid foods with a crown?

Absolutely, crowns should function like your natural teeth. Avoid sticky food which could pull crowns off.
Dear Reader, Can you eat solid foods with a crown? The answer is YES. A crown reproduces the enamel of your tooth. The new zirconia crowns are as hard or even harder than enamel.  Crowns strengthen and protect your natural tooth. Even old-school porcelain fused to metal crowns is very strong.  So, eat away and enjoy.
