This is a type of tooth restoration made primarily from gold or a gold alloy. It is custom-crafted to cover and protect a damaged or decayed tooth, restoring its shape, strength, and function. Gold crowns are highly durable, resistant to wear, and biocompatible, making them ideal for molars that endure heavy chewing forces. They require minimal removal of tooth structure and rarely cause allergic reactions. Though less common today due to aesthetic preferences, gold crowns remain a reliable option for long-term dental care, especially in areas of the mouth where appearance is less critical.
