Types of Dental Crowns: Materials, Durability, and Aesthetics
Dental crowns come in various types such as porcelain, ceramic, zirconia, and metal. Learn which option best suits your dental needs.
Dental crowns are tooth-shaped caps placed over damaged, cracked, or root-canal-treated teeth to restore their natural shape, size, strength, and aesthetic appearance.
Today, patients have several material options. Porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) combines the strength of metal with a tooth-colored exterior. Full ceramic and monolithic zirconia crowns provide exceptional translucency, biocompatibility, and strength without any dark metal margin at the gumline.
During your consultation at Bangalore Smiles Dental Care, Dr. Neha Singh evaluates your bite force, tooth location, and cosmetic goals to recommend the ideal crown material for long-term function.
