Metal Porcelain Crown

Usage Areas of Metal Porcelain Crowns

Metal porcelain can be used in vast areas to enhance the natural look of your teeth. Understanding which size of your teeth needs to be improved or restored is integral. A porcelain fused metal crown is perfect for front and back teeth. Dental crowns made of metal porcelain are more affordable than other porcelain crown types. The following are some of the usage areas of metal porcelain crowns:

1. Restoring damaged or decayed teeth: Patients with decayed or damaged teeth, either from accident or illness, can use metal porcelain crowns to restore the teeth. They are perfect for your teeth as they fix your teeth and prevent their teeth from getting damaged further.
2. Improving the appearance of teeth: Metal porcelain crowns can enhance the appearance of the teeth and make them look natural and fabulous. They can enhance the appearance of the teeth by covering discolored, misplaced, or unattractive teeth. 
3. Supporting a dental bridge: Metal porcelain crowns can help a dental bridge by placing them on the teeth adjacent to the gap left by missing teeth. This provides a stable base for the dental bridge.

How Is Metal Porcelain Crown Made?

The mold of your treated tooth is used to construct your dental crown. Its shape is quite similar to that of the tooth it is replacing, and it can be cleaned and colored to match the neighboring teeth. When a metal base is used to make a dental crown covered with ceramic or porcelain, a thin metal coating is first produced around the ready tooth mold. The steps for creating a metal porcelain crown are the following:

1. Preparation of the tooth
2. Dental Impression
3. Fabrication of the metal substructure
4. Application of porcelain 
5. Finishing and Polishing 
6. Placement.
