Our teeth can get damaged with various of reason. You may encounter the problem of losing the size and shape of your tooth. Dental crowns are tooth-shaped “caps” and can be attached to the top of the tooth. Think this like a comfortable hat for your tooth. Size, shape, strength and appearance of the teeth are restored by crown. The dental crown is cemented into place on your tooth and it covers the visible portion of the tooth
Why would I need a dental crown
Crown can be required if you have these various symptoms . These could be as below:
- Used to restore a broken tooth or a severely worn tooth

What are dental crowns made of?
Permanent crowns are made out of many different materials. These materials include these:
There are three types of products used for full-mouth crowns/veneers and they are:
Zirconium crowns , Ultra translucent, multi-layered Zirconia veneers, and porcelain crowns
Zirconium Crowns
+ Zirconium crowns are also translucent to provide a natural look. + They are also strong enough to last up to for many years with proper care and maintenance. + Zirconium crowns are the best chosen for patients among those seeking a “Hollywood” smile.
Ultra Transculent Multi Layered Zirconia Veneers / Crowns
These treatment are what we would recommend to our parents
+ On the Enamel requires less preparation (cutting/filing/shaving)
+ It looks more natural appearance because Zirconium is more transparent than crowns. The other reason why it is seems natural is Natural teeth are layered and UTML Zirconia veneers are made mimic them to provide a natural look.
It is also strong enough to last for many years with proper maintenance and regular checks.
