Ah dental crowns! <\/span>The cherry atop most dental interventions, the most noticeable features in the mouth, the ultimate smile factor<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

You may or may not know what dental crowns are, but they can <\/span>easily<\/span> be described<\/span> as teeth built from solid materials<\/span>. These teeth <\/span>are placed<\/span> atop an implant, and <\/span>are fashioned<\/span> to look and act like natural teeth.<\/span><\/p>

Having seen their definition, let\u2019s dive into discovering their wide panoply so we know what we’re working with<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Dental crowns do come in different types and components. <\/span>The following paragraphs shine more light on the wide range of dental crowns available<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Porcelain Crowns<\/b><\/p>

Porcelain is a ceramic material, vitrified through intense heat for a fine white and translucent render<\/span>. <\/span>Using porcelain for crowns results in solid crowns, very aesthetic, natural-looking, and long lasting teeth<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Zirconia Crowns<\/b><\/p>

Zirconium is a white biocompatible metal made of zirconium oxide, better known in dentistry as \u201czirconia\u201d<\/span>. Zirconium crowns <\/span>are known<\/span> for their strength, longevity, aesthetic appeal, and tissue friendliness. <\/span>They are <\/span>equally<\/span> a good alternative for patients allergic to metal, and can be <\/span>easily<\/span> prepared compared to other materials<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

E-Max<\/b><\/p>

E-max crowns <\/span>are made<\/span> from lithium disilicate, a ceramic glass material. <\/span>E-max are peculiar for their slight translucence and maneability, which makes them very <\/span>similar to<\/span> natural teeth<\/span>. These traits <\/span>equally<\/span> make them the best for front teeth, as they are most visible and least used.<\/span><\/p>

Stainless Steel Crowns<\/b><\/p>

As its name suggests, stainless steel crowns are <\/span>literally<\/span> made from stainless steel, and <\/span>are used<\/span> to treat infected teeth<\/span>. They are also used to replace lost teeth in children. For those areas which can\u2019t hold fillings, stainless steels <\/span>are used<\/span> to cover them instead. <\/span>This helps keep the cavity closed from food particles, and helps stop bacterial propagation<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Gold Crowns<\/b><\/p>

The advent of Hip-Hop in the 1980s didn\u2019t only cause a huge shift in the fashion industry, but in dentistry as well. <\/span>The popularity of grillz and metallic plated teeth among youths and celebrities is the main cause of the existence of gold crowns today<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Gold crowns <\/span>are made<\/span> through a mixture of gold and a few other metals such as copper, nickel or chromium. <\/span>These crowns are very solid, thus making them good contenders for back teeth replacements<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

When it comes to the aesthetics of gold crowns, it gets pretty subjective. <\/span>Given their gold colour, they definitely will not give the natural outlook obtained from other crown types<\/span>. <\/span>On the other hand<\/span>, gold crowns are more of a fashion statement meant to stand out, thus <\/span>possibly<\/span> meeting patients’ desired aesthetic<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Temporal Crowns<\/b><\/p>

After an implant post <\/span>is fitted<\/span>, healing time <\/span>is required<\/span> for osseointegration and crafting of the permanent crowns<\/span>. During this time, the post as well as surrounding teeth need support for stability. As a solution to this, temporal crowns <\/span>are prescribed<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

They <\/span>are placed<\/span> atop the abutment, and keep the post in place during osseointegration. These crowns <\/span>equally<\/span> provide aesthetics to the smile while awaiting final crowns. Also, they prevent surrounding teeth from tilting towards the teeth cavities.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
