In this regard, your dentist will make a decision by evaluating the condition of your teeth. Today, the most preferred materials are crownings (zirconium covering) made of porcelain completely or metal-supported porcelain crownings. The difference between them is that full porcelain (zirconium) crownings are more aesthetic.
Crowning operation is completed at 3 appointments on average. If it needs to be done quickly, it can be completed on 2 appointments too. It should be 2-3 days between appointments. Your dentist make preparations on your teeth as needed, cleanses any decay parts if there exists, and takes measurements to obtain a complete tooth model. According to the obtained model, the crown is placed into its own position after it is made. Once you and your dentist are satisfied with the appearance and position of it, the crown is cemented permanently.

When one tooth is lost, the other teeth move or bend over within time towards the gap that the missing tooth has formed. The tooth on the opposed of jaw also extends to the gap. These unusual tooth movements lead to tensions in both the tooth and the gum. In addition to all these, destruction occurs on gums and bone tissues. Because natural tooth contacts are impaired and therefore physiological cleaning is also inhibited, the teeth become prone to decay.
