For children a crown can be used on baby teeth to;

Save a tooth that is damaged.
.
Protect the teeth of the child at high risk of tooth decay.

Permanent crowns can be made from;

Stainless Steel – prefabricated crowns used on permanent teeth primarily as a temporary measure. The crown is used to protect tooth or filling while permanent crown is made from another material. The crown covers the entire tooth and protects it from further decay. Generally stainless steel crowns are used for children’s teeth, as they don’t require multiple visits to the dentist.

Metals – metals used in crowns are gold alloy and other alloy like palladium or a base metal alloy like nickel or chromium. Metal crowns withstand the force of biting and chewing better and last longer than others. Metal crowns rarely chip or break.

Porcelain fused to Metal – dental crowns can be color matched to the teeth. There is a possibility of the porcelain portion of the crown to chip or break.

All resin – these types of crowns are less expensive and wear down by time and they are more prone to fractures than porcelain fused to metal.

All ceramic or all porcelain – provide a better color match than any other crown type and more suitable for patients with allergies to metal.

Temporary Versus permanent – temporary crowns are made in the surgery of acrylic or stainless steel and can be used as temporary restoration until the permanent crown is made.

Zirconia or Milled crown – digitally constructed in a surgery with the software and hardware required. This type does not need a temporary crown or impression.

.
TEETH CROWN PROCEDURE

For the teeth crown by dentist in Turkey there are usually 2 trips to the dentist for a dental crown.

On the first visit to the dentist the dentist may take a few X-rays to check the roots of the teeth. If there is extensive decay or risk of infection or injury to the tooth’s pulp, then a root canal treatment will be performed first.

On the next step, the dentist will anesthetize the tooth at the gum around the tooth and the tooth will be filed along the chewing surface and sides to make space for the crown. Once the reshaping is finished, the dentist will use a paste or putty to make an impression of the tooth. The impressions will be sent to a dental lab where the crown will be manufactured. A temporary crown will be made to cover and protect the prepared tooth while the crown is being made.

On the second visit to the clinic the dentist will remove the temporary crown and check the fitting and color of the permanent crown. Once ready, local anesthetic will be used to numb tooth and the new crown will be permanently cemented into its place. Dental crowns usually last around 5-15 years, but in most cases dental crowns can last for a lifetime.
