DENTAL CROWNS

Metal crowns are durable dental restorations used to protect and restore severely damaged, decayed, or weakened teeth. These crowns are made from strong metal alloys such as gold, nickel-chromium, or other biocompatible materials that can withstand heavy chewing forces and long-term wear. Metal crowns are commonly recommended for back teeth where strength and durability are more important than aesthetics. The procedure involves preparing the damaged tooth, taking impressions, and placing a custom-made crown that completely covers and protects the tooth structure. Metal crowns require minimal removal of natural tooth structure and are highly resistant to fracture, making them a reliable long-term solution for restoring function, strength, and comfort.

Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) crowns are dental restorations that combine the strength of metal with the natural appearance of porcelain. These crowns consist of a durable metal base covered with tooth-colored porcelain, making them both strong and aesthetically pleasing. PFM crowns are commonly used to restore damaged, decayed, fractured, or root canal-treated teeth while maintaining a natural smile appearance. The procedure involves preparing the tooth, taking impressions, and placing a custom-made crown that fits securely over the tooth. PFM crowns are suitable for both front and back teeth because they provide durability for chewing along with improved aesthetics. With proper care and regular dental check-ups, PFM crowns can offer long-lasting function, protection, and a confident smile.

Zirconia crowns are advanced dental restorations made from high-strength zirconium dioxide, a durable and biocompatible ceramic material. These crowns are widely used to restore damaged, decayed, fractured, or root canal-treated teeth while providing excellent aesthetics and long-lasting strength. Zirconia crowns closely resemble natural teeth in color and translucency, making them an ideal choice for both front and back teeth. The procedure involves preparing the tooth, taking digital or physical impressions, and placing a custom-made zirconia crown that fits precisely over the tooth. Zirconia crowns are highly resistant to wear, fractures, and staining, offering superior durability and comfort. With proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, zirconia crowns provide a natural-looking, functional, and long-lasting solution for restoring a healthy smile.
