    TYPES OF RESTORATION CROWN

     Metal: There are several metals that can be used in dental crowns,
    including gold, palladium, nickel and chromium. Metal crowns rarely
    chip or break, last the longest in terms of wear down and only
    require a small amount of your tooth to be removed. They can also
    withstand biting and chewing forces. The metallic color is the main
    drawback of this type of crown. Metal crowns are a good choice for
    out-of-sight molars.
     Porcelain-fused-to-metal: This type of dental crown can be
    matched to the color of the teeth that’s next to the crown. They have
    a more natural tooth color. However, sometimes the metal under the
    crown’s porcelain cap shows through as a dark line. Other cons
    include the chance of the crown’s porcelain portion chipping or
    breaking off and the crown wearing down the teeth opposite it
    within the mouth. This wear on the other teeth specifically affects
    the teeth that come into contact with the crown on the top and
    bottom of your mouth when it’s closed. Porcelain-fused-to-metal
    dental crowns can be a good choice for front or back teeth.
     All-resin: Dental crowns made out of resin are generally less
    expensive than other crown types. However, they wear down over
    time and are more likely to break than porcelain-fused-to-metal
    crowns.
     All-ceramic or all-porcelain: These types of dental crowns provide
    the best natural color match compared to any other crown type.
    They’re also a good choice if you have metal allergies. However, they
    aren’t as strong as porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns. They can also
    wear down the teeth opposite them in the mouth a little more than
    metal or resin crowns. All-ceramic crowns are a good choice for front
    teeth.
     Pressed ceramic: These dental crowns have a hard inner core.
    Pressed ceramic dental crowns replace the metal liner that’s used in
    the all-ceramic crown-making process. Pressed ceramic crowns are
    capped with porcelain, which provides the best natural color match.
    They’re also more long-lasting than an all-porcelain crown.
