Gold crown

Home Gold crown

A gold crown is a type of dental restoration used to repair and strengthen a damaged or decayed tooth. Unlike other crown materials, such as porcelain or ceramic, gold crowns are made entirely of gold or a gold alloy.

Gold crowns offer several advantages:

  1. Durability: Gold is a highly durable and long-lasting material, making gold crowns suitable for restoring posterior teeth subjected to heavy biting forces.
  2. Biocompatibility: Gold is biocompatible, meaning it is well-tolerated by the body and less likely to cause allergic reactions or tissue irritation.
  3. Longevity: With proper care and maintenance, gold crowns can last for many years, providing a reliable and stable restoration for the tooth.

The process of placing a gold crown involves two appointments:

  1. Preparation: During the first appointment, the dentist prepares the tooth by removing any decayed or damaged tissue and shaping it to accommodate the crown. An impression of the prepared tooth and surrounding teeth is then taken and sent to a dental laboratory, where the gold crown is custom-fabricated.
  2. Placement: Once the crown is ready, usually within a few weeks, the patient returns for the second appointment. The dentist checks the fit and appearance of the crown before permanently cementing it onto the prepared tooth using dental adhesive.

Despite their many advantages, gold crowns may not be suitable for individuals who prefer a more aesthetic option, as they are highly visible in the mouth due to their metallic color. However, for patients prioritizing durability and longevity, gold crowns remain a reliable choice for restoring damaged teeth.
