It is about artificial alternatives made from natural, mouth-friendly ceramic materials such as zirconium, ceramic, or metal. These alternatives are used to cover damaged or broken teeth, helping to restore their natural shape and function. They play a key role in improving the overall appearance of teeth and are a common solution for correcting major issues such as tooth damage, discoloration, or misalignment, as well as filling gaps between teeth. Dental crowns are available in various types.
 

What are the types of dental crowns?

1.Zirconia Crowns: Zirconia crowns are known for their durability and high strength. They have a natural appearance and the ability to withstand high forces, making them suitable for both posterior (back) and anterior (front) teeth. They are aesthetically pleasing and provide a natural color for the teeth.

2.Ceramic Crowns: Ceramic crowns are a popular choice that provides a natural look for teeth. They are known for their color and appearance matching with natural teeth, and are typically used for anterior (front) teeth.

3.Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal Crowns: These crowns consist of a metal base that covers and shapes the tooth, coated with a thin layer of porcelain. They are known for their strength and durability due to the metal base and provide a natural appearance thanks to the porcelain coating.

4.Composite Crowns: Composite crowns are used to restore damaged teeth and modify their shape. They are applied directly to the teeth, allowing for immediate shaping and coloring.

Dental crowns vary in the materials used, features, and applications depending on the teeth being covered and their condition. They are evaluated by a specialized dentist at Denteva Clinic to meet the patient's needs and choose the appropriate type of dental crowns.
