Dentists can place crowns on wisdom teeth (3rd molars). It all depends on whether it is appropriate to do so.
Often, wisdom teeth are relatively unimportant to the function of the patient's mouth, and therefore it would be a waste of time, money and effort to restore them with a crown or filling. On the other hand, sometimes wisdom teeth can be important, especially if they are in occlusion and the patient is missing 1st or 2nd molars.
If you have doubts about your dentist's recommendations, seek another opinion from an oral surgeon or prostodontist (crown & bridge specialist).

Caps, or crowns, are placed to protect teeth that have been weakened by decay, cracks, large restorations, or root canal therapy. Caps may also be placed to correct esthetic problems or to rebuild teeth that have been excessively worn down.

Most crowns are made in dental laboratories by highly trained dental lab technicians. Some dentists do have the facilities to make crowns themselves though.

Crowns made in foreign countries are not subject to the regulations of the FDA.
