ATLANTA, GA, April 30, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dentists use crowns to protect a damaged tooth from further decay as well as to restore a tooth's shape and strength. They can be made from a variety of materials depending on the purpose and location in the mouth.
Metals such as gold alloys or base-metal alloys are used as crowns for back teeth where their metallic color is hidden from view. Metal crowns can last for an incredibly long time and can withstand strenuous biting and chewing.
Porcelain fused to metal crowns look just like normal teeth and are good for both front and back teeth, but when the gums recede, the metal underlay can be exposed and show up as a dark line along the gum line. All-ceramic or all-porcelain crowns are normally used for front teeth because they match the color of natural teeth better than other materials. However, they are not as strong and tend to wear down opposing teeth more.
