• All ceramic or all porcelain:
  
  These types of crowns fully match the color of teeth for a concealed appearance and work very well with those who may have allergies to metal. They are great for front teeth.
• Resin:
  These crowns are one of the least expensive options, but have to be replaced more often than other types.
  
• Porcelain-fused-to-metal:
  
  This option is very durable while matching the same shade as your teeth. However, they may appear as dark lines around your tooth so many people love them for back teeth that are not as visible and are used more often.
• All metal:
  
  This option is the most durable of them all at the cost of aesthetic appearance. They do not match the same color as teeth.
