When the majority of the upper tooth has been damaged and needs to be replaced, a crown may be in order. Dr. Wondra offers crowns in ceramic or gold.

The ceramic crowns are designed and applied in a single visit using the advanced CEREC system. This dynamic software takes the guesswork out of crown design. They are almost indistinguishable from natural teeth, and the bonding process provides a superior bond to your teeth. It is metal-free for patients with metal sensitivities.

The gold crowns are appropriate when appearance is not a priority.

The gold metal is malleable, making them fit precisely. There exists a slight possibility (around 1 in 100) of chipping with porcelain crowns, but gold will not chip.
