Dental Crown Materials
When you’re thinking about dental crowns, it’s super important to know the different types of materials out there. Each type has its pros and cons, so let’s dive into what you need to know!
Types of Materials Used in Dental Crowns
Dental crowns come in a few main materials. Here’s a quick overview:
- Porcelain: These crowns look a lot like real teeth! They’re great for front teeth because they blend in well.
- Zirconia: Strong and tough, zirconia crowns can be used on both the front and back teeth. They resist damage and look nice too.
- Metal: Made from gold or other metals, these crowns last a long time. They are very strong but might not look as good, so they’re often used for back teeth.
- Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal: This type combines the strength of metal with the looks of porcelain. It gives good durability and appearance.
Choosing the Right Dental Crown Material for Your Needs
Choosing a dental crown material is all about your needs. Here are some things to think about:
- Tooth Location: If it’s a front tooth, you might want something that looks natural, like porcelain. If it’s a back tooth, durability might be more important.
- Cost: Some materials, like gold and porcelain, can cost more than resin-based options.
- Your Preferences: Talk with your dental practice about what you want. They can help find a good fit for your situation.
Comparing the Advantages and Disadvantages of Different Crown Materials
| Material | Advantages | Disadvantages |
|---|---|---|
| Porcelain | Looks great, very natural | Not as durable as metal |
| Zirconia | Super strong, looks nice | A bit pricier |
| Metal | Lasts a long time, very strong | Less attractive |
| Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal | Good combination of strength and beauty | May show metal at the gums |

What are dental crowns? A dental crown or a tooth crown is a tooth-shaped cap that is placed over your natural tooth.
You may require a dental crown for a number of reasons including:
- After root canal treatment
- For a broken or chipped tooth
- To replace an old filling
- Or simply to improve the look of your smile
A dental crown, or tooth cap as they are sometimes referred to, will help protect your tooth from any further damage or infection. If you have chipped or broken your tooth you can read more about what to do here.
If you have missing teeth, a dental bridge can be used to “bridge” the gap. Here, a ‘fake’ tooth fills the gap of the missing tooth and is held in place by dental crowns. An alternative to dental bridges is to replace the missing teeth is dental implants. You can read more about dental implants here.
Crown placement generally involves reducing the entire surface of a tooth, which is permanent. This may cause the following:
- Temporary or longer-term sensitivity.
- While crowns are strong, they can still chip, fracture, or come loose, especially in patients who grind their teeth.
- Colour is matched carefully, but final results may not meet expectations exactly.
- Gum irritation may develop if cleaning is inadequate or if a crown does not fit properly.
- Crowns are not lifelong solutions and may need replacement due to wear, breakage, or changes in adjacent teeth and gums.
The procedure usually takes two visits. Most patients resume daily activities quickly, though some may require short rest periods. Teeth that need crowns are often already weakened, and there is a possibility that root canal treatment may be required later. Research indicates that a proportion of crowned teeth may eventually need further treatment. Ongoing check-ups and care are important, and additional costs may occur.
The cost for your dental crown will typically be around $1,850 per crown. The exact amount will be determined and explained to you ahead of any treatment. Contact our staff for more information. Your health fund should cover some of these costs and we also offer flexible payment plans so that you can pay your crown off over a number of weeks or months.
