Dental crowns are caps that cover a tooth or a dental implant. Dentists often recommend crowns as a way to support broken, weak, or misshapen teeth. They can also be used to cover up a tooth that’s very worn down or severely discolored. And can be used in conjunction with bridges to strengthen multiple teeth.

When it comes to the materials that crowns are made of, you have several possible options, including ceramic and metal. Another option that’s now available for some people is a zirconia crown.

Zirconia crowns are made from zirconium dioxide, a very durable type of ceramic material.
