Types of spraying on metal teeth
Metal crowns on teeth with coating are aesthetically more attractive. In addition, additional processing helps protect them from corrosion. Platinum and gold are used for this.
The first option increases the strength of the prosthesis and increases its service life. Gold plating provides a glossy appearance to the crown. In addition, gold is known for its antibacterial properties.
There are also options with ceramic or plastic lining. This treatment improves the appearance of the crowns and makes them look like natural teeth.
Step-by-step installation of a crown on a tooth
The process of installing a metal crown on a tooth begins with careful preparation. The dentist conducts a comprehensive diagnosis of the oral cavity, removes caries (if any) and, if necessary, treats the tooth canals. Additional steps:
- Grinding a damaged tooth. The dentist carefully grinds down the tooth to prepare it for the crown. In cases of severe destruction of the chewing element, a special inlay is used to strengthen and fix the crown
- Taking impressions. The dentist makes impressions not only of the damaged tooth, but also of the adjacent chewing elements. This is necessary to ensure that the new crown fits perfectly and is as comfortable as possible
- Installing a temporary overlay. This step protects the ground tooth from further damage during the fabrication of the permanent crown. The temporary overlay serves as protection and ensures the functionality of the chewing element
- Creating a 3D wax model and casting a crown. Based on the impressions, the dental technician creates a wax model of the future prosthesis. Based on this model, a permanent metal crown is then cast
- Installation of a permanent crown. At the final stage, the temporary overlay is replaced with a permanent one. The dentist checks how the crown fits on the tooth and fixes it with special cement
After the procedure, it is important to avoid excessive stress on the prosthesis: in particular, you should not eat too hard or hard foods.

What types of dental crowns are there?
Metal dental crowns are traditionally made from steel. There are also options in titanium, gold and platinum. In addition, alloys of chromium with cobalt, or palladium with silver are used in their manufacture.
Depending on the method of execution and the materials used, dental crowns can be stamped (such products are made from a finished metal blank using the stamping method. They are standard in size and shape) and cast. The second option is made individually for each tooth. This ensures that the prosthesis exactly matches the size and shape of a specific chewing element.
