Dental crowns are the cap like structures which are placed above the tooth serving different functions like chewing, grinding, protection for the underlying teeth, strength to the underlying tooth, esthetics and for smile. Tooth crowns are predominantly of the following types:
- Metal ceramic crowns
- Zirconium crowns
- E max dental crowns
- Bruxzir crowns
Each crown has their own advantages and disadvantages, but metal free crowns like (zirconium, e max & bruxzir) are more commonly in use now a day. Factors which decide the cost of these dental crowns/ tooth crowns/ dental caps/crown cost usually vary according to quality of the material, strength of the material & how close it is to the natural teeth.
