PORCELAIN CROWNS
A porcelain crown is used to completely cover a weakened, damaged or cracked tooth above the gum line and protect it. Coloured and shaped to match your own teeth, crowns can look and feel almost exactly like a natural tooth.
Porcelain fused to metal crowns.
Porcelain fused to metal crowns can be referred to as full-cast crowns which has porcelain fused on most or all parts of the tooth. They are a hybrid between porcelain and metal crowns. The entire crown has a metal layer underlying and porcelain / ceramic on top of it.
The metal framework is thin, strong, and perfectly fits the prepared teeth. It’s a combination of different types of alloys which are designed such that they bond very well with the porcelain. Metal alloys with a high melting temperature are used to fuse porcelain to the surface and preventing the metal from melting. This ensures the porcelain to bond without changing its color.
When the tooth is prepared for such crowns, a large part of the tooth tissue gets removed making space for porcelain as well as the metal.
ZIRCONIA CROWNS
Crowns made with zirconia, or zirconium provide a strong and esthetic upgrade from previous versions of Porcelain Fused to Metal or PFM crowns. The primary advantage that we can see with Zirconia Crowns is that they are milled from a scan as opposed to cast from an impression. The accuracy and fit is much superior, and the esthetic advantage over metal core crowns is incredible.
Zirconia crowns are milled from a solid piece of zirconia. They are either finished with a top layer of porcelain, or finished in pure zirconia. As they are made from either a direct scan of your tooth, or a scan of a high accuracy impression, the resulting seal and fit is superior to that of a basic cast crown. We use only the highest quality laboratory work to provide you with a long lasting, beautiful restoration.
