How do you know if you need a dental crown?
When the size of a filling exceeds a certain proportion of the tooth, the filling must be replaced with a crown.
A crown is a restoration that covers the whole of the tooth, commonly known as a cap. If a tooth is significantly weakened, contains a large filling, or is broken, a crown is often the recommended treatment.
What are dental crowns made of?
Crowns can be made entirely of gold or with porcelain bonded over gold. These options are still the strongest and, moreover, look just like your natural teeth.
Contemporary crowns use materials like zirconia, which are white in color and almost as durable as the porcelain fused to gold variety.
However, there is a drawback, as these often require more tooth substance to be removed to accommodate the crown. On the flip side, the appearance is simply stunning – there's only one word for it, and that is: WOW!
