Unit-Cast Constructions
The primary purpose of this type of crown is the prosthetic restoration of the chewing (posterior) teeth. Although one-piece cast metal crowns have a natural anatomical shape, they still present as a fully “metallic” tooth.
Unit-cast metal crowns are primarily used for restoring posterior (chewing) teeth, where strength and durability are essential. These crowns are fabricated as a single, solid piece of metal, providing exceptional structural stability. Although they maintain a natural anatomical shape, their metallic appearance makes them best suited for areas of the mouth where aesthetics are not a priority. Unit-cast crowns remain one of the most reliable solutions for long-term restoration of molars and premolars.
