What is a dental crown?
A crown covers all the tooth or a part of it. They are used for aesthetic and prosthetic purposes as well as to protect the abutment of implants. After the dentist has prepared the tooth or has put the implant abutment on the implant, he takes an impression and sends it to the laboratory, where the crown is made of the ordered material. The finished crown is cemented to the tooth or is cemented the same way or screwed on the implant abutment.
