Lava All Ceramic Zirconia Crown


Before

Tooth with a porcelain fused to metal crown.  Patient is unhappy with the shape color and size of the crown and feels that it does not look natural.




After
Here is the tooth immediately after placing a new Lava all ceramic Zirconia crown.  These crowns have no metal and are very strong.  Notice how the tooth is tapered as it approaches the gums and looks more natural.  This is also healthier for the gum tissue.
