What are Dental Crowns?

A dental crown is a prosthesis designed to restore the fully or partially crown portion, i.e., the visible part of a tooth. Thanks to it, the restored tooth looks and functions just like a real one, preventing further destruction. Crowns are made individually, using various materials.

Types of Dental Crowns

Crowns vary based on the materials from which they are made. Each material has its characteristics, affecting the price, appearance, strength, and durability of the finished product.

Metal-Ceramic

This type of prosthesis consists of a metal frame about 0.3 mm thick and a ceramic veneer. The base is most often made of a cobalt-chromium alloy, but precious metals - gold, platinum - are also used. In dentistry, there are two types of metal-ceramic crowns:

Dental Crown - 1
  • Standard – the lower edge remains without a ceramic coating;

"With shoulder mass" – fully covered with ceramics.

  • Advantages of metal-ceramics include:
  • Strength, durability – the service life reaches 15 years;
  • Good appearance;
  • Possibility of restoration in case of chips on the ceramic coating.

Disadvantages also exist:

  • The metal frame may show through the ceramic veneer;
  • If a layer of ceramics is not provided at the lower edge, the gums may turn blue due to contact with the metal;
  • When the gum line recedes, the metal strip will be visible.

All-Ceramic

Ceramic or porcelain crowns are an alternative solution for patients with metal allergies. These prostheses consist only of ceramics, without a metal frame.

Advantages:

  • Realistic appearance – making them well-suited for use in the smile zone;
  • Do not cause allergic reactions, rejection;
  • Long service life – with proper care and careful use, the service life reaches 10 years;
  • Restoration is possible in case of chips or scratches on the surface.
  • The main disadvantage of ceramic products is not very high resistance to strong mechanical impacts. They may chip due to significant chewing load.

Zirconia

Zirconium dioxide is a strong, durable material that can withstand mechanical impacts as well as many metals. When making crowns, it is used in different ways:

  • Structures made from a solid block of zirconium dioxide – this option is usually used for restoring chewing teeth;
  • Combined with porcelain, realistically imitating tooth enamel – this solution is suitable for restoring front teeth.

Advantages of zirconium dioxide:

  • Ability to withstand significant load without chips, cracks, or other defects;
  • Versatility – suitable for restoring any teeth;
  • No allergic reaction;
  • Impeccably realistic appearance;
  • Service life of 15-20 years.
  • The main disadvantage is high cost.

E-max Glass-Ceramics

These crowns are made from lithium disilicate. Two variants are used:

  • Pressed – E-max PRESS;
  • Machined on a CAD/CAM machine.

In terms of transparency and color, this type of glass-ceramics closely matches natural tooth enamel. Its advantages are:

  • Realistic appearance;
  • High strength, long service life;
  • No allergy.

Disadvantages:

  • High cost;
  • Impossibility of restoration in case of chips and other defects;
  • Difficulties in creating bridge constructions consisting of more than three crowns.

Metal

Full-metal crowns are considered outdated, but dentists sometimes still use them. These prostheses are made from various metals – titanium, stainless steel, platinum, gold. Products with gold plating are also used. Metal constructions are easy to manufacture, making them particularly affordable. However, they often cause allergic reactions, and their appearance leaves much to be desired. Metal prostheses look unrealistic, stand out from the row of teeth, and attract attention. Therefore, they are installed on molars, i.e., those teeth units that are practically invisible to others.

Plastic

Plastic models are soft, not very durable, and look unrealistic. But they have an important function: they are used as temporary structures to protect the damaged tooth while permanent prostheses are being manufactured in the laboratory.

Characteristics of Crowns Installed on Implants

Prostheses of this type are installed in different ways:

  • Fixed on a pre-treated tooth;
  • Placed on implants.

Externally, they do not differ from each other. However, implants are usually not loaded with ordinary ceramic crowns: they have comparatively thin walls that cannot withstand high mechanical load.

  • Different methods are used to fix the crown on the implant:
  • Using dental cement;
  • Through a screw connection.

Screw fixation is more convenient for the patient, as it allows easy replacement or restoration of a damaged crown if necessary. When installed with cement, a prosthesis that needs replacement has to be cut and replaced with a new one. With screw fixation, the prosthesis can be easily removed, defects corrected, and then put back in place. However, such products are more complicated to manufacture.

Indications for Installing a Crown on a Tooth

The main reasons for restoring teeth with crowns include:

Dental Crown - 2
  • Destruction of the tooth by more than 50% or its complete absence;
  • Progressive destruction of the tooth unit caused by non-caries lesions;
  • The need to strengthen a depulped tooth;
  • Pathological thinning of the enamel;
  • Abnormal tooth shape, spoiling the aesthetics of the smile;
  • Serious enamel damage, presence of deep cracks, rough chips;
  • Change in enamel color;
  • Tooth fracture;
  • The need to replace an old, worn-out crown.

This method is also used if the patient does not want or, for some reason, cannot use veneers for aesthetic purposes. The final decision on the possibility of restoring a tooth and the appropriate technique is made by the doctor, who conducts an examination, prescribes diagnostic tests, and decides which restoration option is suitable for the patient.

Contraindications

Restoring teeth with crowns is an effective, safe, time-tested method. However, in some situations, it is not used. Here are the main contraindications.

Relative

The procedure should be carried out with special caution if the patient has:

  • Foci of chronic inflammation in the tissues surrounding the tooth root – fistulas, cysts, granulomas;
  • Root canals, the filling of which is done inadequately.

Crown installation is possible only after treating caries and other tooth and gum diseases.

The procedure is also not performed:

  • During pregnancy and lactation;
  • If the patient is under 18 years old – exceptions are possible, but a serious justification is required, and the decision remains with the doctor.

Absolute

The procedure is not carried out in the following cases:

  • Allergy to metal – the dentist will try to offer an alternative solution, such as non-metal ceramics or E-max glass-ceramics;
  • Occlusal anomalies, especially with the incisors of one row overlapping the other;
  • Bruxism – spasms of the masticatory muscles, causing the patient to involuntarily clench their jaws, grind their teeth;
  • Pathological mobility of teeth of the 3rd degree;
  • Advanced periodontitis;
  • Nervous, mental disorders that prevent the patient from adequately responding to the doctor's actions.

Which Crown to Choose for a Tooth

Several important factors are considered when choosing:

  • Strength, durability of the material from which the prosthesis is made;
  • How well its characteristics match the teeth that need to be replaced;
  • Aesthetic properties;
  • Cost.

Products made of zirconium dioxide are considered the best solution. They can be installed in the smile zone, used to replace chewing teeth. Non-metal ceramics are suitable for restoring front teeth units. Metal-ceramics are often used for restoring molars. During the consultation, the doctor will offer available options, talk about their features, advantages, and disadvantages.

Stages of Installing Dental Crowns

The installation is carried out in several stages, following consultation and preliminary preparation.

Visual Examination of the Patient

At the first appointment, the doctor examines the patient to assess the condition of the oral cavity and determine the extent of tooth decay, whether bite correction is needed, and whether there are signs of tooth and gum diseases that need to be treated. Additional diagnostics are ordered, usually including computed tomography (CT) and radiography. Some tests may be required. Diagnostics serve several purposes:

Dental Crown - 2
  • To more accurately assess the condition of the oral cavity;
  • To provide images that will be used for manufacturing and installing orthodontic structures;
  • To identify contraindications and potential problems.

Based on the diagnostic results, the doctor suggests available tooth restoration options.

Preparation

The dentist takes impressions of the patient's teeth, which technicians in the laboratory will use to make crowns. They can also be manufactured based on images taken with CT and radiography. This approach allows for the creation of orthodontic structures of the necessary anatomical shape, ensuring they do not cause discomfort when used.

Before installation, it is necessary to:

  • Treat caries and other diseases, eliminate inflammation in the oral cavity;
  • Fill the root canals;
  • Perform professional teeth cleaning to remove hard plaque and other deposits from their surface.

Directly before the procedure, anesthesia is administered. Local anesthesia is usually used, but general anesthesia or sedation can also be applied.

Nerve removal (pulpotomy) is not always performed. Modern dentistry suggests that it's better to preserve the neurovascular bundle to ensure full nutrition of the dental tissues. This way, the tooth under the crown will not decay and will function as a support for a long time.

Using a Post

This option is used if it is necessary to strengthen a severely damaged tooth. The post is a rod made of metal, carbon fiber, or fiberglass. It is inserted into the root canal, then fixed with dental cement. Active posts with threads, which are installed by screwing, are also used.

Using a Core Build-up

If the tooth is severely damaged and its tissues are insufficient for forming a core, an artificial substitute - a build-up - is used. It is fixed on one or several posts and serves as a non-removable prosthesis, over which the doctor places a crown.

Supported by an Implant

In this case, the surgeon first implants an artificial root – a metal rod capable of withstanding significant load – into the jawbone. The implant connects to the crown through a special intermediary element, the abutment. A screw connection is usually used.

When Crowns Cannot Be Placed

Orthodontic structures are usually not installed on severely damaged teeth. For example:

  • The height of the remaining tooth above the gum is no more than 2-3 mm – the problem may be solved with a core build-up;
  • The tooth is heavily affected by caries that has penetrated deep and reached the gum level;
  • The teeth have lost stability due to periodontosis.

Lifespan and Proper Care

The lifespan of crowns depends on the material they are made from, the quality of installation, and how they are cared for.

Zirconia products are the most durable, lasting up to 15-20 years. Metal-ceramic and E-max glass-ceramic models are also durable, lasting up to 15 years. Under favorable conditions, this period can be extended.

Main Care Rules

It is recommended to:

  • Regularly clean teeth twice a day: it's better to use toothpaste without abrasive additives or with low abrasivity, brushes with soft and medium bristles, to avoid scratching the surface of the prostheses;
  • Use additional cleaning tools: an irrigator, dental brushes, and flosses help remove plaque from hard-to-reach places;
  • Adjust the diet: it's better to consume fewer hard foods, and if you have metal-ceramic constructions, try to avoid sharp temperature changes;
  • Limit smoking or quit altogether: hot smoke contributes to the drying and cracking of the material, and it contains substances that stain the surface of orthodontic constructions.

Visit the dentist approximately every six months for preventive purposes. The doctor will assess the condition of the crowns and, if problems are detected, suggest methods to resolve them.
