All Ceramic Crowns
It might come as a surprise, but “all-ceramic” crowns or “caps”, have been around for most of the past century. These restorations have no metal and are totally made of ceramic glass sometimes strengthened with a translucent material such as zirconium. They have always been a highly desirable cosmetic solution for front teeth even without the availability of modern bonding. Incorporating bonding with all-ceramic crowns potentially can restore both the strength and beauty to that of unblemished natural teeth. Today teeth that have too much damage to be corrected with fillings or veneers can still be made white and natural with all ceramic crowns. Examples of all-ceramic crown systems we use are Empress, Procera, and Lava, as well as computer aided all-ceramic designed crowns. Dr. Brother, with your input, decides which system is the most appropriate to achieve strongest the most natural looking crowns for your smile.
