Dentists and their lab partners rely on various materials to fabricate dental crowns. At Children’s Dentistry of Northborough, the dentist will talk to you about the options and make recommendations that support oral health needs and aesthetic goals.

Tooth Crown Options for a Healthy, Beautiful Smile

Dental crowns in Northborough are made of various materials, including but not limited to:

• Zirconia
• Metal
• Metal Fused to Porcelain

Sometimes, the dentist may recommend a metal, fused, or zirconia crown for teeth in the bite line to ensure stability and success. Specific choices may also promote longevity. However, we use durable materials for all our crowns for a lasting and functional outcome.  

How We Use Crowns

Crowns are tooth-shaped caps that cover a treated tooth to the gumline. They are designed to match your natural teeth.

We recommend crowns for children and adults for various reasons, including but not limited to:

• Capping a damaged or at-risk tooth to restore function and stability.
• Cosmetically concealing a short or unsightly tooth.
• Completing a variety of dental treatments.
