Crowns
A crown is a type of dental restoration that fully cups over that portion of a tooth or dental implant that lies at and above the gum line.
Once placed, it in effect becomes the tooth's new outer surface. In comparison, a dental filling just fills in or repairs a portion of a tooth.
Dental crowns are permanently cemented into place. The tooth-crown unit that results is cared for and functions like any natural tooth. (Reference http://www.animated-teeth.com)
We use stainless steel for kids. Regular and all-porcelain for adults.
