Porcelain Crowns

Porcelain crowns are a common dental instrument found on many people as a way to improve the esthetic appearance of their teeth. These instruments are used in instances where a tooth has begun to wear down, crack, or break. The breakdown of a tooth can occur for a number of reasons that include teeth grinding, improper bite, filings, tooth decay, or just age. The use of porcelain crowns not only covers the visible surface of the affected tooth thus improving the appearance of one’s teeth, but also adds strength, stability, and durability to the affected tooth.

Another issue related to porcelain crowns that you will need to consult with a qualified dentist is what kind of dental crown is best suited to your needs. There are three main types of porcelain crowns: porcelain or reinforced resin porcelain crowns, combination dental crowns, and gold crowns. Porcelain dental crowns are the most esthetically pleasing dental crown that mirrors the color of natural teeth. However, these crowns also create difficulty in fitting with the gum where it meets the crown due to its thickness and it is also more prone to chipping compared to metal crowns. However, this type of crown is still durable. Combination porcelain crowns utilize a mixture of porcelain and metal which although still esthetically pleasing, are not as visually appealing as a porcelain dental crown. However, combination dental crowns are stronger than porcelain crowns and are the most common type of dental crown. Gold crowns are the strongest type of dental crown and provide the best fit to one’s teeth. This type of crown is also free of the possibility of chipping, but due to its material is immediately noticeable and lacks the esthetic benefits of porcelain dental crowns or combination dental crowns.
