Dental crowns are made in our laboratory by our experienced dental technicians. They pay special attention to the process so that the crowns results in a match that is entirely seamless between the tooth and the crown. Different materials are used in manufacture, and the most common is the combination of metal and ceramic.
In cases of progressive teeth decay caused by caries or other problems of teeth deterioration, dental crowns are highly recommended. Apart from improving the quality of life (impact on speech improvement, mastication and enjoying all types of food), they will raise your self-confidence and bring back the smile you have always dreamed of.
Before cementing the dental crown, natural teeth have to be prepared by process of grinding. Dental crown is a perfect solution to major irregularities of teeth.
TYPES OF DENTAL CROWNS
Metal-ceramic dental crowns
This type of dental crowns has become a standard in modern dentistry because of their extreme firmness and longevity, as well as their functionality and aesthetics. The base of this type of crown is made of metal core covered in ceramics. Types of metal that are used are gold, titanium or cobalt chromium alloy. Their main advantage is the firmness that provides a sense of basis safety for every patient.
Zirconium-ceramic crowns
Zirconium oxide ceramic is known for its extreme firmness, stability, biocompatibility and remarkable aesthetics and zirconium is the latest high-quality material used in manufacture of dental crowns. Zirconium, as a material, is very translucent which makes it perfect for imitating natural color of teeth. Unlike metal-ceramic crowns, zirconium basis under layers of ceramic is white and it does not reflect metal at the gingival margin or changes the color of gingiva. Zirconium-ceramic dental crowns are made with CAD/CAM technology, which makes them fit perfectly on the natural tooth for easier hygiene and lower risk of gum irritation.
Monolithic dental crowns
This kind of ceramic replacement is done from one material only-lithium disilicate and zirconium oxide without layers of ceramic.Monolithic dental crowns are also made with CAD/CAM technology which results in high precision of fitting and a detailed morphology. Fast and precise production of biocompatible material is one of the biggest advantages of this type of dental crowns. The final product is remarkable aesthetic and functionality, along with firmness and resistance to mastication forces.
The duration of dental crowns depends on the duration of the natural tooth or dental implants to which they are cemented, since metal and ceramic are long-lasting materials.
HOW DENTAL CROWNS ARE PLACED AND HOW TO MAINTAIN THEM
Before every dental crown treatment, check-up and consultation with your dentist is done to determine if you are the right candidate for it and to suggest which type of dental crowns are suitable for you. After all the detailed analysis, your dentist will shape your teeth and prepare them for the fitting of crowns. Your dentist will also take impressions of your teeth and surrounding tissue that will be sent to the laboratory. Once the dental crowns are made, they are cemented permanently to your teeth.
To maintain the longevity of dental crowns, regular visits to your dentist are obligatory, as well as adequate oral hygiene. Tooth brushing and flossing at least two times a day is recommended. Interdental brushes are also recommended because they efficiently remove tooth plaque and therefore prevent caries and potential periodontal problems.
