Frequently Asked Questions

What is a dental crown?
The crown is a cover that is manufactured from special materials to cover the teeth from all sides to change the shape of the smile, as well as the color and dimensions of the teeth. The installation is done after preparing the tooth for the crown by specialized dentists to avoid any damage to the teeth or gum.
Crowns and veneers are manufactured from the same materials and are indistinguishable from each other once they are installed. The main difference between them is in the number of teeth sides they cover. Veneers cover the front of the teeth only while crowns cover all sides of the teeth. The choice between them is made based on different factors like the strength of the enamel layer, tooth decay, large teeth gaps, jaw mismatch, bite type, and many other factors that are evaluated by the treating dentist.
There are two different types of crowns: 1- E-Max 2- Zircon
Both are used in cosmetic dentistry and achieve exceptional results, with the difference being: 1- Zircon is stronger so it is usually used in molars 2- E-Max is more aesthetic so it usually used in frontal teeth In the end, the treating dentist is the one capable of choosing the right type for each case.
