CROWNS – PERMANENT SUPPLEMENT OF SINGLE TEETH
This is a kind of a cap installed permanently (with cement) on filed tooth.
Crowns are mounted on teeth with destroyed core
in the course of caries, injury or numerous fillings.
We should keep in mind, that dead teeth have to be
enforced with poured metal inlays or more often with
fiber glass inlays, to avoid fracture.
Crown mounted on prepared tooth reconstruct proper physiologic
shape, brings back bite function, prevents from fracture and damage
of tooth and crown.
There are different kinds of crowns: metal, metal veneered with
ceramics and half-ceramics.
Because aesthetic factor, beside durability is main criterion by the
choice of crown, we use poured crowns veneered with porcelain or
half ceramic.
