Metal-Free Dental Crowns
Metal-free crowns are custom-made restorations designed to protect and strengthen teeth without using traditional metal. Instead, they are crafted from high-quality ceramic materials that can be matched to the natural color, shape, and size of your teeth.
These crowns are durable, long-lasting, and gentle on the body, making them an excellent choice for anyone seeking a healthier, more natural-looking smile. Because they are hypoallergenic and free of metals, they are often recommended for patients who want to avoid both the look and possible sensitivity issues of metal-based crowns.
How Are Metal-free Crowns Placed?
The process of receiving a metal-free crown at Jason Long & Associates Family Dentistry is simple and designed for your comfort. First, our dentist will examine your tooth to confirm if a crown is the right option. If so, the area is numbed with local anesthetic to keep you comfortable. Any decay or damaged portions of the tooth are carefully removed, and the area is cleaned.
To protect your tooth, a filling material may be placed to seal and strengthen it. The tooth is then shaped so the new crown can fit securely. Impressions are taken and sent to a dental lab, where your crown is made with precision. While your permanent crown is being created, you’ll wear a temporary one. Once your custom crown is ready, you’ll return to our office to have it placed securely, restoring strength and appearance to your smile.
Why Choose Metal-Free Crowns Instead of Traditional Crowns?
- They blend naturally with your smile, offering a beautiful and realistic appearance.
- They are strong and durable, often lasting many years with proper care.
- They protect weakened teeth without causing additional wear or stress.
- They boost confidence by giving you a healthier, more attractive smile.
- They are free of mercury and other metals, making them a safer choice for both you and the environment.
- They lower the chances of irritation or infection around the tooth.
