✅ What Are Metal Dental Crowns?
Metal dental crowns are caps made from strong alloys like gold, platinum, cobalt-chromium, or nickel-chromium. They cover and protect damaged teeth, restoring their function and durability.
Unlike ceramic or porcelain crowns, metal crowns are nearly indestructible — making them perfect for molars and patients who need extra bite strength.

🛡️ Why Choose Metal Dental Crowns?
Patients often choose metal crowns because:
Unmatched strength – they can last 20+ years.
Minimal tooth reduction – less drilling required compared to other crowns.
Affordable price – metal dental crown cost is lower than many alternatives.
Durability under pressure – ideal for patients who grind teeth or chew hard foods.
Trusted worldwide – used by dentists for decades with proven results.
