Could you answer a couple of questions I have?

The cost-saving approach of combining treatment in Hungary with aftercare in Wexford is appealing. Could you share more about how the consultation process ensures the best crown choice for each patient’s unique dental needs?
Hi Alan,
Thank you for your comments.
One of the best crown options is Zirconia. Dentists make zirconia crowns from zirconium dioxide, a metal related to titanium. Like all-metal crowns, zirconia crowns are durable and long-lasting—they don’t fracture as easily as PFM crowns. During the consultation process in Wexford our experienced Hungarian dentist will discuss which crown is best for each individual patient’s needs.
