Types of dental crowns
1- Stainless steel
We recommend stainless steel dental crowns mainly to children who have undergone pulp therapy or root canals. They are done to restore primary teeth and are not meant to last long. In addition, if there is a need of a temporary crown as to protect the tooth before a permanent crown is placed, then we may use a stainless steel crown at Dentakay.
2- Porcelain/Ceramic
Porcelain or ceramic crowns are considered the most durable in comparison to their counterparts. They also give the most authentic and natural results. Our dentists suggest these when our patients are not looking for a metallic look but desire the strength of a metal crown.
3- Zirconia
Zirconia crowns are becoming increasingly common due to the many advantages they offer. For one, zirconia is extremely durable and strong making them ideal for back teeth. Imagine the force your back teeth have to exert while they help you chew and break down the food! This is why zirconia dental crown is our first and foremost choice when it comes to the back teeth.
4- E-max
E-max crowns are becoming a global favorite for front or visible teeth. Made from porcelain, these crowns have a special design and composition that gives them the ability to transmit light just like natural teeth.
5- All-Resin
All-resin dental crowns are one of the most economical options available at Dentakay. These can easily be matched to gel in with the surrounding teeth. Moreover, they do not require an extensive tooth preparation.
6- Metal-Infused Porcelain
Metal-infused porcelain crowns are an ideal alternative that falls between all-metal and all-porcelain crowns retaining benefits from either material. Unlike metals, metal-infused porcelain can be color-matched to natural teeth. So, basically you get a dental crown at Dentakay that looks procelain, having strength that of a metal dental crown’s.

Whereas zirconia crowns can cost anywhere between $210 to $310. As for porcelain crowns, the cost can range anywhere between $150 to $250.

What are CEREC dental crowns ?
CEREC dental crowns is a modern technology that allows you to get your ceramic crowns in one day. This technique is very high-tech and uses CAD and CAM for production. It relies on computer-assisted design and manufacturing to make your crowns on-premises.
These programs allow your dentist to take very precise impressions of your mouth for the best fitting.
Once all your information is on the system, using a 3D printer, your dentist prints out your personalized ceramic crown. At Dentakay, this process takes a total of 15 minutes only. Give it another 15-20 minutes for your dentist to cement your crown. And voila! Your quickest dental crown in one visit.
One thing to remember is that if you have dental infections, your dentist will have to postpone your treatment. It’s imperative to treat underlying problems beforehand!
