How can i whiten my crowns?

Sorry, you can;t whiten a crown. Unfortunately some crowns are made of gold or part gold part other precious metal, which obviously can't be whitened. White crowns, or porcelain crowns are baked porcelain, which is a set color that goes down the entire depth of the crown. Your natural teeth whiten because bleaching removes stain on your teeth, the crowns can't whiten, because their color is intrinsic to the material that they are made of. In order to whiten a crown you need to replace it.

How long do dental gold crowns last?

Dental gold crowns can last for decades. I've personally seen some last over forty years. In general, porcelain-fused-to-metal or all-porcelain crowns do not last as long a gold crowns. A goal for dental providers is to be able to place a crown that will last at least ten years. This is considered a adequate lifespan of a crown. Most crowns will last longer than this but gold has the best track-record for longevity. One reason gold lasts longer is because it is more forgiving to the chewing forces created in the mouth. Porcelain is more brittle and can fracture, whereas gold is malleable and can change shape to accommodate the force rather than fracture. Gold crowns are often recommended for back teeth which actually bear higher chewing stresses when compared to front teeth. Porcelain is opted for when aesthetics is a concern. This is why porcelain is generally recommended for teeth closer to the front. They look more like real teeth and they can last a long time when they aren't under a lot of chewing stress.

Why do some people have gold lined teeth from a dentist?

Some people have gold-lined teeth due to dental restorations or cosmetic procedures that use gold for its durability and biocompatibility. Gold is often chosen for crowns, fillings, or bridges because it can withstand significant wear and is less likely to cause allergic reactions. Additionally, some individuals opt for gold accents for aesthetic reasons or as a form of personal expression. Gold dental work can also be a status symbol in certain cultures.


Is a gold crown better than porcelain?

Whether a gold crown is better than porcelain depends on individual needs and preferences. Gold crowns are known for their durability and strength, making them ideal for back teeth that endure significant chewing forces. In contrast, porcelain crowns offer a more natural appearance and can be color-matched to surrounding teeth, making them preferable for front teeth. Ultimately, the choice between the two should consider factors like location in the mouth, aesthetics, and personal dental health.

Dental crowns can be made from various materials, including precious metals like gold and platinum, as well as porcelain, resin, and ceramic.

However, many patients opt for porcelain or ceramic crowns for their aesthetic appeal, especially for front teeth.
