Full Porcelain Crowns
Full-porcelain crowns are also called all-porcelain crowns or all-ceramic crowns. These crowns are made from only ceramic material. In terms of aesthetic modifications, they are highly preferred. Because they provide a very natural appearance, it is difficult to distinguish a full-porcelain crown from natural teeth.
Since full-porcelain crowns are translucent and look like so natural, they are ideal for restoration work of upper and lower front teeth.
Advantages:
- Full-porcelain crowns are accepted as the most beautiful crowns that a tooth can get. They are aesthetically appealing.
- Due to the translucency of the material, full-porcelain crowns look like natural teeth.
- They are the best crowns for restoring the front teeth.
- Full-porcelain crowns don’t cause any allergic reactions. They are the best solution for people that are allergic to metals.
Disadvantages:
- Full-porcelain crowns are not as strong as porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crowns and all-metal crowns.
- The expertise to place this type of crowns is so challenging.
- They are appropriate for the low-stress zones like the front teeth. They may not be the right choice for the back teeth where significant chewing forces are generated.
- Full-porcelain crowns are comparatively more expensive than PFM crowns.
