ATLANTA, GA, April 18, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/
-- There are several reasons why your dentist may recommend a crown for your tooth. Crowns can help protect a weak tooth from further decay, cover a dental implant, hold a dental bridge in place or restore a broken or severely worn-down tooth.
The experienced Atlanta cosmetic dentists
at Downtown Atlanta Dentistry note that patients have several options when it comes to choosing the right material for their dental crown. For out-of-sight molars, metal crowns can be used because they are extremely sturdy and long-lasting. Some crowns are made up of porcelain that is fused to metal. These types of crown can be used for front teeth as their color can be matched to a patient's surrounding teeth.
All-resin crowns are less expensive, but they are also the most prone to chipping and fractures. For people with metal allergies, some dentists recommend all-ceramic or all-porcelain crowns. They do, however, have a greater tendency to wear down opposing teeth than all-resin or metal crowns.
