When preparing the tooth for the crown and during the placement of the crown, the dentist uses a local anesthetic to minimize pain.
Crowns must be cared for in the same way as natural teeth: regular brushing, flossing and regular dental check-ups are required.
The price of a dental crown can vary considerably depending on the material chosen. In general, metal-ceramic crowns are less expensive, while all-porcelain or zirconium crowns are more expensive.
Modern dental crowns, especially crowns made of porcelain (ceramic) and zirconium, look very natural and can hardly be distinguished from natural teeth.
