CB Dentists: what is the best material for a crown?
It's a front tooth that's visible when smiling, if that makes a difference.
Porcelain?
Ceramic?
Metal covered with one of the above?
Some other material or combination of the above?

For esthetics, porcelain.

High noble gold. Obviously not for esthetics

If I ever needed a crown for a molar I'd choose gold. Wouldn't hesitate

For longevity, gold.

Depends. Some insurances cover only gold.

would metal covered with porcelain give you longevity + appearance?

one of the great characteristics of gold is that it wears similar

Go with a Bruxzir on molar tooth if esthetics are concerning.

Front tooth I would only do all ceramic.

No, in fact, it looks terrible. Metal isn't translucent and makes the tooth

Prefer simple gold crown with sapphires that match my eye color for everyday use
