What Are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are tooth-shaped caps placed over damaged or weakened teeth to restore their shape, size, strength, and appearance. They cover the entire visible part of the tooth and are custom-made to match the color and shape of your natural teeth.

Types of Dental Crowns

• Porcelain Crowns – Natural-looking and ideal for front teeth.

• Metal Crowns – Extremely durable, often used for molars.

• Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) Crowns – Strong with a natural appearance.

• Zirconia Crowns – Highly durable and resistant to wear.

• Resin Crowns – More affordable but less durable.

Benefits of Dental Crowns
✔️ Restore the strength and function of damaged teeth
✔️ Improve the appearance of discolored or misshapen teeth
✔️ Protect weak teeth from further damage or fracture
✔️ Long-lasting with proper care

How Are Dental Crowns Placed?

1. Consultation – Your dentist assesses the tooth and discusses the best crown material.

2. Preparation – The tooth is reshaped, and an impression is taken.

3. Temporary Crown – A temporary crown is placed while the permanent one is made.

4. Placement – The custom crown is cemented into place and adjusted for a perfect fit.
