Dental crowns?!


Question:

Dental crowns?

My dentist told me today that I need to get two crowns (eeek!) They said I have a choice between a basic one and a premium one that is only made of porcelain on the outside and not a combination of metal and porcelain. Is there a huge difference or are they just trying to get me to spend more money?


Answers:

For molars, I recommend the porcelain fused metal (PFM) crown and for all the other teeth all porcelain. Ask your dentist which one he recommends for the teeth he is working on. Prices shouldn't be too different.
