Now, let's learn about dental crowns and bridges.

Understand Dental Crowns and Dental Bridges

Dental crowns and bridges are permanent prosthetics that are cemented to your teeth. You need not remove them everyday for cleaning like you do for dentures.[1]

Dental Crowns

Crowns are hollow dental caps placed on existing teeth or teeth implants.[2] Being tooth-colored caps, they cover the flaws concerning size and shape.

Further, they add strength as well.[3]

Dental Crowns In Mexico

Typically, crowns are used:[4]

  • As the visible part of a dental implant.
  • To improve aesthetics of damaged visible teeth.
  • To restore the aesthetics or function of a broken or fractured tooth.
  • To provide strength and reduce the risk of fracture in a weakened tooth.

Dental Bridges

Dental bridges "bridge" the gap left by missing teeth and can replace more than one missing tooth.[5]

They improve aesthetics and chewing ability. Like crowns, they may be supported on existing teeth or teeth implants.

Note that bridges are recommended if you prefer non-invasive and non-surgical methods.[6]

A typical dental bridge has two crowns holding a center pontic. The pontic teeth span the gap created by missing teeth.

The crowns hold them on either side. They anchor the entire bridge on the existing natural teeth or implants.[7]

Now, let's look at the different types of crowns that Mexico offers.

Dental Crowns Types Available in Mexico

Depending on the material used, dental crowns can be full porcelain, porcelain fused to metal, porcelain fused to gold, or Zirconia.

Full Porcelain/ Ceramic Crowns

Porcelain or ceramic crowns are made completely out of porcelain material.

They present a translucent look and closely resemble natural teeth.

Due to their natural aesthetics, they are ideal for replacing front teeth.[8]

The average cost of a single unit of a porcelain crown in Mexico is about $250, which is only a fraction of the US cost.

Full Metal Crowns

As the name suggests, full metal crowns are completely made of metal.

Your dentist in Mexico may use a metal alloy, as per your case, to make your dental crown.

Some dentists also recommend a gold alloy crown for patients allergic to certain metals.

Metal crowns are not aesthetically pleasing. However, they provide better strength than others.[9]

The cost of metal crowns in Mexico starts at $120 and depends on the material used. Gold crowns usually cost more than other metal crowns.

Porcelain Fused to Metal or PFM Crowns

PFM crowns are metal crowns with a thin porcelain layer. They are stronger than all-porcelain crowns and are also more durable.[10]

PFM crowns give a better survival rate compared to porcelain crowns.

However, they have less appealing aesthetics due to the metal framework underneath the porcelain.[11]

For this reason, they are rarely recommended to replace front teeth and mostly used for rear teeth replacement.

Porcelain fused to metal crowns

PFM Crowns in Mexico

Porcelain fused to gold crowns are an alternative to PFM crowns for patients allergic to metal.

In Mexico, the average cost of porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns is $210.

Zirconia Crowns

Zirconia crowns are made of a material called zirconia.

This material is well-known for its strength and aesthetic appeal, making it ideal for front and rear teeth.[12]

The cost of Mexican dental crowns made of Zirconia is $400 and you will save up to 80% by choosing them.

CEREC Crowns

These are also known as same-day crowns.

CEREC crowns use CEREC® CAD/CAM technology to fit porcelain or zirconia crowns in just one day.[13]

The process of getting same-day crowns is the same as other crown types except for the duration. After taking the 3D scan of your mouth, the crowns are prepared and fixed on the same day.

Amazed by the variety of options?

Don't miss out on expert guidance! Now, let's get deeper into the procedure for getting dental crowns and bridges in Mexico.

Procedure for Dental Crowns and Bridges in Mexico

It may take 1 visit to Mexico to complete your dental crown or bridge procedure.

Step 1: Evaluation and Preparation

A specialist will take a detailed analysis of your situation. They may discuss with you different options for types and materials of crowns or bridges.

Your dentist will prepare your tooth for effectively placing the crown. During this step, they may remove decay and trim the tooth.

This is to make adjustments near the site to ensure the crown fits perfectly. They may give you anesthesia if required.

They will take 3D scans, photographs, and impressions of your mouth and teeth to make the exact model for the tooth crown.

Step 2: Crown/ Bridge Placement

The prepared dental crown or bridge is fitted on the prepared site in your mouth.

Step 3: Testing and Adjustment

For the next 3- 4 days, your dentist may see if the crowns fit alright by testing natural teeth functions.

If you opt for same-day CEREC crowns in Mexico, the process may take only 1 day.
