The Crowning Glory: What’s A Tooth Cap or Dental Crown?

What Are Dental Crowns?

Dental crowns, also known as caps, are custom-fitted prosthetic devices placed over damaged or decayed teeth. Crafted from high-quality materials such as porcelain, ceramic, or metal alloys, these crowns not only restore the tooth's functionality but also enhance its aesthetic appeal.

Types of Dental Crowns

At Auckland Family Dental, we offer a range of dental crowns to suit diverse needs. From porcelain crowns for a natural look to metal crowns for added durability, our comprehensive selection ensures that each patient receives a personalized solution tailored to their unique requirements.

1. Porcelain Crowns:

  • Natural Aesthetics: Mimicking the translucency of natural teeth, porcelain crowns ensure a seamless and authentic smile.

  • Stain Resistance: Resistant to staining, these crowns maintain a pristine appearance over time.

2. Ceramic Crowns:

  • Metal-Free Excellence: Ideal for those with metal allergies, ceramic crowns provide a metal-free alternative while maintaining superior aesthetics.

  • Biocompatibility: Known for their biocompatibility, ceramic crowns seamlessly integrate with the body's natural tissues.

3. Metal Crowns:

  • Exceptional Durability: Crafted from alloys like gold or nickel-chromium, metal crowns offer unparalleled strength and durability.

  • Minimal Tooth Removal: These crowns require less removal of natural tooth structure during the preparation process.

4. Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) Crowns:

  • Strength and Aesthetics: PFM crowns strike a balance between the strength of metal and the aesthetic appeal of porcelain, making them versatile for various dental needs.

  • Suitable for All Teeth: Ideal for both front and back teeth, providing strength and aesthetics in one solution.

5. Zirconia Crowns:

  • Enhanced Strength: Zirconia crowns boast exceptional strength, making them a reliable choice for withstanding biting and chewing forces.

  • Biocompatibility: Biocompatible and reducing the risk of allergic reactions, these crowns prioritize both strength and safety.

6. CEREC Crowns:

  • Same-Day Solution: CEREC crowns, utilizing cutting-edge CAD/CAM technology, allow for same-day crown placement, minimizing the time between preparation and restoration.

  • Precision and Efficiency: The computer-aided design and milling process ensures precision, efficiency, and a perfect fit for your dental crown.
