Metal Crown Caps

Listing ID #3724386

A crown is a tooth-shaped cover placed over a tooth that is badly damaged or decayed. A crown is made to look like the tooth. Many people call it a cap. A crown is used to entirely cover or "cap" a damaged tooth. A crown can be used to improve its appearance, shape or alignment. Crowns may be made of metal, porcelain, or newer restorative materials like metal free ceramics. Porcelain or ceramic crowns can be matched to the color of your natural teeth. Other materials include gold and metal alloys, acrylic and ceramic. These alloys are generally stronger than porcelain and may be recommended for back teeth. Porcelain bonded to a metal shell is often used because it is both strong and attractive.
