Types of crown

The right material depends on where the tooth is and how much it has to withstand.

Ceramic fused to metal (PFM)

A metal core adds strength so back teeth can handle chewing, with a tooth-coloured surface.

from 10,000 THB

Gold & metal crowns

Very strong and well tolerated by the gums — mostly used for molars.

from 13,000 THB

How the treatment works

  1. Examination & impression

    The tooth is examined, prepared and an impression sent to the lab.

  2. Temporary crown

    A temporary crown protects the tooth for about a week.

  3. Permanent crown

    The final crown is fitted, adjusted and cemented.

More about dental crowns

Another popular dental restoration is CROWN. It is a fixed prosthetic device used to completely cover and prevent teeth from undergoing further decay and restore teeth’s health by improving the strength and appearance of teeth.

Types of Dental Crowns

All-ceramic crown

Due to the life-like translucency, all-ceramic crowns can be the most cosmetically pleasing type of crown to be used for front teeth.

Ceramic Fused to Metal Crown

Due to the added strength provided by the metal inner core, metal based ceramic crown is the best choice for back teeth in order for crowned teeth to withstand the pressure from chewing.

All-metal crown

This type of crown is made entirely out of metal (gold, silver, etc). Metal crowns are mostly used for back teeth or molars, where there is a need for great strength and lesser concern for esthetic value.

All-resin crown

This type of crown is made from composite material similar to material used for white fillings. This crown is used for front teeth only as it is not as strong as the other materials suitable for back teeth like ceramic-fused-to metal and all-metal crowns.

Benefits of Dental Crowns

  2. Restore fractured tooth
  3. Crown a dental implant
  4. Restore teeth with large holes when dental filling is no longer possible.
