Make-up of dental crowns
 

At Barry Brace DMD & Associates our dental crowns are most often made of gold or porcelain.   Crowns also can be made of stainless steel, but those crowns are often temporary and not designed for long-term wear.

Porcelain crowns usually are built on a metal base, which fits snugly over the natural tooth.  We will choose a porcelain that matches the color of your natural teeth.

Porcelain crowns usually are so carefully matched in color, they cannot be distinguished from your natural teeth.  Many people choose porcelain crowns for their cosmetic appearance and the confidence it gives them.

New materials are now available that allow the use of "all-ceramic" crowns in many cases.  They have a beautiful life-like appearance and short-term studies support their success, with long-term trials ongoing.

Call us at (314) 965-6503 for a complete evaluation of your cosmetic needs.
