Crowns
A crown is a type of dental restoration that covers or “caps” a damaged tooth. Crowns can be made from various materials, including:
1- Porcelain: Provides a natural look and is often used for front teeth. 2- Metal: Offers durability, typically used for molars. 3- Porcelain-fused-to-metal: Combines the natural appearance of porcelain with the strength of metal. 4- Ceramic: Similar to porcelain, offering a natural appearance.
