Hi, thanks for sending your questions. Sounds like you have silver, which are metal crowns. More esthetic and viable options are all ceramic porcelain crowns which will not only look but feel more natural in your mouth. All the best.

Paul Binon, DDS · Answer

You can definitely replace your silver crown with a porcelain tooth-colored crown. This will provide a more natural looking result that blends in seamlessly with your smile. However, if your current silver crown is still functioning properly, you should weigh your desire for beautiful aesthetics against the cost of replacing a perfectly good crown before deciding whether to move forward with the procedure.

Amber Garcia, DDS · Answer

The crowns can be changed to zirconia crowns which are tooth colored. But do you really want to put a 4 year old child through that if it isn't necessary? Unless the crowns have decay or other issues, I probably wouldn't mess with it.
