Types of Dental Crowns and Materials - Gold, Porcelain, Lithium Disilicate, & Zirconia

What Are Your Options and What Type of Dental Crown Looks Best?

What are the major differences between the options?

How are they made?

This video dives into the permanent dental restoration options from the Crown and Bridge Department.

We take a look at ‪@Ivoclar-global‬ E.max lithium disilicate, Bruxzir zirconia from ‪@GlidewellDental‬, PFM porcelain crowns and solid metal crowns.

A dental crown is necessary when a tooth suffers damage from either physical damage or decay and needs to be replaced.

This video series should not be used in place of seeing a dentist. It is impossible to accurately diagnose the source of pain or discomfort without an exam and updated x-rays.
