Metal-free crowns
They are natural!
We are used to seeing metal crowns in people’s mouths, but at Dr. Ackerman’s, we make them metal-free, for more aesthetic, natural results. Metal-free crowns are just as strong as metal crowns, and even stronger, yet they imitate the natural characteristics of your teeth.
Dental crowns
In deep fillings, or root canal treatments, a dental crown is used to subsequently support the tooth. A tooth damaged by caries, with signs of degeneration, becomes weak, and sometimes less stable. When the roots are damaged, a lack of support can cause the tooth to fall.
In such conditions, dentists use dental crowns. While the old strong metal crowns would keep stable for many years, the patient’s aesthetics was compromised. Metal-free crowns are a game changer.
Metal-free crowns
Metal-free crowns are now recommended, and can be applied at Dr. Ackerman’s Dental Clinic.
In the past, quality was more important than aesthetics. But today we can offer our patients more. Instead of metal crowns and their artificial appearance, metal-free crowns not only have natural color, they look a lot better.
Metal-free crowns: no fear
In metal-free crowns, the color of the natural teeth can be successfuly immitated. The crown looks very much like the natural tooth, and is almost unnoticable. The design of the crown is done with the help of a software, which makes for a better level of accuracy. The crowns are designed in accordance with the patient’s jaw, so that they are less noticeable.
And here is another great advantage of metal-free crowns. With time, as the gums begin to recede, more of the natural tooth is revealed. With a metal crown, this would create an unaesthetic black line at the gumline. But with metal-free crowns, this is a thing of the past. Even exposed teeth keep to their natural color.
