Dental Crowns

What are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns are cap-like structures, customized to mimic the shape, appearance, and size of the teeth. They are bonded over the existing tooth, encapsulating the portion both above and beneath the gum line.

When are Dental Crowns Needed?

Crowns serve as an advanced restorative solution when conventional fillings can’t restore the tooth’s structure. In cases where there are numerous fillings, the risk of tooth fracture increases, and fillings can also get disrupted. Crowns can effectively replace fillings and also restore aesthetics. They play a crucial role in shielding teeth after a root canal procedure.

How are Dental Crowns Constructed?

Dental impressions are taken by the dentist, and the crown is designed in a laboratory based on these and the dentist’s recommendations.

Benefits of Dental Crown

They offer long-lasting protection to teeth from decay, weakening, and fracturing.
They restore broken and worn teeth.
They serve as a safeguard for teeth post-fracture treatment

Types of Crowns

Dental crowns are fabricated using various materials, with the majority being composed of ceramic and metal. Permanent dental crowns are primarily constructed from stainless steel, gold, and specific alloys. Ceramic and metal combinations are also prevalent.

Metal-Ceramic Crowns

Metal-ceramic crowns combine metal and ceramic layers. A thin metal layer provides strength and protects the tooth, while a ceramic layer is added atop for a natural appearance and to facilitate easy chewing.

Metal Crowns

Metal crowns, which are primarily made of metals, are less commonly used now due to their conspicuous metallic appearance.

Zirconia Crowns

Zirconia crowns, primarily German-made, are composed of Zirconia, a sturdy natural mineral that resists chipping. They are preferred for their strength and biocompatibility, as they are readily accepted by the human body without side effects.

All-Ceramic Crowns

All-ceramic crowns are often recommended for front teeth due to their superior translucency, even under intense light or camera flash, providing a natural look.
We excel in shade matching, ensuring the final outcome looks natural.
