Crowns for front teeth

When installing crowns on the front teeth, it is important that they have a natural appearance, match in shape, color and transparency. Another important aspect is that artificial teeth should not cause a dark blue tint to the gums, as this makes their appearance unattractive. When making crowns, the doctors of the K+31 clinic comply with all modern dentistry standards. Even a slight deviation from the technology has a negative effect on the functioning of the lower jaw. If the crown is installed too high, the joint that connects the lower jaw to the skull is disrupted. As a result, other bones and muscles of the face are displaced.

Indications for installing a crown on the front teeth

The reasons for installing crowns on front teeth are varied. Some people do not have all their teeth developed naturally, have an irregular shape, or are covered with chips or cracks. There are cases when patients break their front teeth during a fight or accident. Often, teeth are destroyed due to caries. Crowns are also needed when installing a dental bridge.

Contraindications to prosthetics

It is not recommended to make crowns on front tooth implants if the following restrictions are present:

  • Incorrect position of teeth when closing the jaws
  • Teeth with live pulp, especially in children and adolescents
  • Inflammation of tissues surrounding the teeth
  • Exacerbation of cardiovascular diseases
  • Cancer
  • Severe diabetes
  • Taking cytostatics
  • Wear of enamel and other hard components of the tooth due to metabolic disorders or hormonal imbalance

Also, implants are not installed in pregnant and lactating women, children and adolescents. Before starting treatment, the patient must discuss their general health with the dentist and report the presence of chronic diseases. If there is an allergy to drugs, you need to inform the doctor about this.

Types of crowns

The choice of the implantation method is determined by the dentist depending on the degree of damage. Before making crowns on the front teeth, the dentist selects the material taking into account the appearance of natural teeth. The best options are considered to be metal-ceramic structures, ceramics with a zirconium dioxide frame, and E.max glass ceramics. Let's consider each of the materials in more detail.

Metal

Metal implants in dentistry are durable and highly stable, so they are suitable for chewing teeth. The metallic shine makes them more noticeable, which is unacceptable for the front row. They are made mainly of steel, titanium, platinum and gold. They can cause allergies. Metal crowns last more than 15 years.

Metal-ceramics

Metal-ceramic implants in dentistry are a combination of a metal base and a ceramic coating. The base makes the crown durable, and the ceramic coating gives it a natural look. Crowns are suitable for replacing both individual units and for installing bridges. Their disadvantages are the appearance of a bluish tint in the gum area, abrasion of enamel on adjacent teeth, high invasiveness, the need to grind the tooth, which changes its original shape. The service life of metal-ceramic crowns is 10-15 years.

Zirconium dioxide

Computer technology is used in the manufacture of zirconium implants, which ensures an exact match to the shape of the tooth. The crowns are extremely durable and aesthetically pleasing, as they are indistinguishable from natural teeth. They are suitable even for people with metal allergies. The main drawback of the designs is their high price. Implants last up to 20 years.

Ceramics and glass ceramics

Ceramic and glass ceramic crowns are highly biocompatible, resistant to stress, and hypoallergenic. They are lightweight and suitable for installation on weakened teeth. Such implants are resistant to coloring agents and retain their original color for a long time. Minimal grinding of the tooth before installation allows the doctor to save more healthy tissue. The main drawbacks are their high cost and relative fragility, which makes them less suitable for chewing loads. Ceramic and glass ceramic crowns last from 10 to 15 years.

E-max

E-max crowns are made of cast zirconium dioxide, which provides strength and wear resistance. They are effective for restoring the front units, as they accurately imitate the natural color of the teeth. The material is biocompatible and does not cause allergic reactions. E-max crowns are not suitable for replacing chewing teeth due to limited resistance to loads. The high cost is due to the complexity of production and the use of modern materials. The service life of E-max crowns can reach up to 15 years.

What kind of crowns are best for front teeth?

Many patients, when they come to the dentist, wonder what kind of crowns are best to install on the upper front teeth. All-ceramic implants are considered the best solution. Classic ceramics or porcelain are used to produce such prostheses, which are obtained by pressing casting with subsequent firing. Ceramics based on zirconium dioxide are offered as an alternative.

Many patients wonder whether it is painful to install a crown? The most unpleasant moment is considered to be the preparation stage, during which the molar is cleaned of caries, the nerve is removed, and then ground down to the desired size for the future crown. Such procedures can cause severe pain, so they are carried out only under anesthesia.

Answers to popular questions

Doctors at the K+31 clinic answered frequently asked questions about dental crowns.

Which prosthetic option to choose?

The two best options are ceramic and zirconium implants.

How quickly can crowns be made on the front teeth?

Crown production takes from 1 to 2 weeks after tooth preparation, depending on the material and complexity of the work.

Why do you need a temporary crown on the front teeth?

A temporary crown is used to protect the prepared tooth from damage and infection while the permanent structure is being made (at least 7 days). It maintains the aesthetics and functionality of the dentition during the waiting period.

There are also temporary crowns on implants. They are necessary to reduce discomfort during the adaptation period - when the titanium screw has already been implanted, but you need to wait from 4 to 6 months for complete osseointegration. Temporary crowns are often used for prosthetics of the front teeth - incisors or canines. They are partially involved in the chewing process and hide dental defects.

If the doctor has prescribed wearing a temporary plastic crown for six months, should I take a test to determine the degree of allergy to metals and alloys? Or should I do skin tests?

“If you have been recommended to wear a temporary crown for 6 months, it is better to check for an allergic reaction to metals using a blood test. Skin tests are not used in such cases.” — the doctor at “K+31” answers.

As a patient, I can see the doctor's attention and attitude during the appointment and pain relief. What I saw was that Yukova M.R. is a responsible, attentive and caring doctor who helped me save a tooth from extraction. Today, during an appointment, another dentist-orthopedist in another clinic took a picture and praised the work and asked for contacts where and who treated this tooth. Top class! Thank you again!!!

Thank you very much to Dr. Omar for the parental happiness that the doctor gave us!... Where and to whom we took Maxim... We had hysterics, both our Maxim and we were under enormous stress. In other clinics, doctors sang songs to him, danced and showed him all kinds of cartoons, everything was useless. They only told us to do general anesthesia..... And now we get to Dr. Omar.... MAGIC!!!.... Maksimka leaves the doctor with her teeth cured and makes an appointment to meet again as soon as possible!.... So we cured all our teeth with a smile and great gratitude. Every week he asks to meet with the doctor, just to see if new holes have appeared there..... DOCTOR FROM GOD!!!.... I wish there were more such doctors, not only for children, but also for adults. With great respect and love, your regular clients clinics (Zaitsev sisters, Tatiana and Elena)

My daughter had a sharp toothache and we urgently had to look for a pediatric dentist. They chose Anastasia Eduardovna. Examination revealed pulpitis. There were 2 options, removing the tooth or trying to save it. The doctor said that of course it’s better to try to save it. We treated our tooth in two visits. At the first appointment, everything was cleaned, a temporary filling was placed, and then we were observed for 2 weeks to ensure there were no complications. After 2 weeks we went to the doctor and got a permanent filling. We are very pleased with the attitude and quality of Anastasia Eduardovna’s work.
