Crowns

A crown is a dental restoration that completely covers a tooth. Crowns are used to restore both front and back teeth that are badly broken down or decayed.

In our practice, we use two types of material to fabricate a crown.

• Porcelain fused to metal restorations: a thin sheet of porcelain is fused to a metal base. This gives the strength of a metal restoration but allows your dentist to match the shade of the porcelain to the surrounding teeth, achieving a more natural look.
• Non metal restorations: the crown is fabricated entirely from non-metal materials such as Alumina, Zirconia and Porcelain. The non metal crown has the most advance aesthetic properties.
