A dental crown is an artificial dental restoration that is placed over the remaining part of a prepared tooth, making it strong and giving it a natural shape and appearance
Computer-aided design (CAD) and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) technologies, and metal-free materials are used for dentistry procedures by dentists and dental laboratories, to provide patients with milled ceramic crowns, veneers, onlays, inlays, and bridges.
Dental CAD/CAM also is used to fabricate abutments for dental implants, used to replace missing teeth.
Tooth Crowns can be made of a variety of materials and new ones are continually being introduced.
Here are the most popular options:
ZIRCONIA CROWNS
The strongest dental crowns are made of zirconium, as it is extremely durable and 100% biocompatible.
Zirconium Crowns excel at withstanding chewing and bruxism forces.
PORCELAIN CROWNS
Porcelain crowns are made entirely out of porcelain, made to look extremely natural and are most often
used for front teeth.
