What are dental crowns and bridges, and what are they used for?

Dental crowns and bridges are a kind of dental restoration that is fabricated on a single tooth to correct a misaligned tooth. These dental crowns are stain-resistant because they are made of porcelain. This is a permanent treatment where the dentist or his/ her lab technician can fabricate the dental crowns according to the colour (shade) of the adjacent teeth (basically, we can match the shade of the teeth), with different size and shape (anatomy of the teeth).

Types of Dental Crown Treatment:

There are several types of dental crown & bridge treatment available, including:

  1. Full metal crowns
  2. Porcelain fused to metal
  3. All-porcelain crowns
  4. Zirconia crowns
  5. Emax crowns

Full metal crowns

It is mainly composed of metal. These kinds of crowns are basically customized for back/molar teeth (posterior teeth). Appearance-wise it looks silver or grey in color & is not aesthetically pleasing; hence, it can be used in areas where the teeth are not visible.

Porcelain fused to metal (PFM) crowns

PFM crowns combine the strength of metal with the natural-looking appearance of porcelain. They are a versatile option suitable for both front and back teeth.

All-porcelain crowns

Ceramic dental crowns are made of either porcelain or ceramic materials. They are rigid and strong but tend to be more delicate than their metal counterparts. Looking for full ceramic dental crowns in Mumbai? Book a consultation now at the Magnum Clinic.

Zirconia crowns

These are made from zirconium oxide. They are strong and durable compared to porcelain fused to metal crowns, and these crowns don’t give a bulky feeling to the patients. Looks like more natural teeth (aesthetically pleasing). A choice of treatment can be given for front teeth as well as back teeth. Because they withstand heavy biting forces. In cases of bruxism or nighttime grinding habits, the dentist advises the patient to go for zirconia crowns instead of PFM crowns. For zirconia dental implant prices in Mumbai, contact us.

Emax crowns

These are made from lithium disilicate. Even these crowns do not have any metal coping inside. E max crowns are usually given to front teeth, because they look more natural, and have good anatomy and translucency. Emax bridges price and consultation in Mumbai; contact us.
