Crowns made of metal and ceramic materials

Metal ceramic crowns are composed of high-quality biocompatible alloys that are coated with a unique ceramic material known as porcelain.

In cases where there are missing teeth between healthy teeth, we opt for a bridge over implants for replacement.

Advantages

Large immobile prosthetic restorations or mobile prosthetics can benefit from their use.

• Resistant to the passage of time.
• Capable of withstanding vibrations.
• Colorings cannot be absorbed by it.

Metal-ceramic crowns are not recommended for patients seeking flawless aesthetic outcomes.

Disadvantages

• Over time, due to aging or aggressive brushing, the metal framework becomes visible, leading the patient to possibly express concern about the tooth appearing "grey".
• A flawless fit can only be achieved through the expertise of a specialist, necessitating special handling.
• Shade of the crown.

In cases of significant tooth damage, crowns are placed to improve and protect the affected tooth. These crowns or bridges are composed of a framework and an aesthetic outer layer, with the specific crowns containing biocompatible metal within the framework.

A dental crown typically has a lifespan of 10-15 years, or potentially longer, provided that the individual maintains good oral and dental hygiene.

In certain instances, early replacement may be necessary upon diagnosis.

Furthermore, metal-ceramic crowns and bridges exhibit exceptional durability due to their hardness, resulting in a high level of resilience. Additionally, the aesthetic outcome is highly satisfactory.
