Porcelain-Fused-To Metal Dental Crown is a type of tooth restoration that combines a strong metal base with a natural-looking porcelain outer layer. The metal provides strength and durability, while the porcelain coating mimics the colour and translucency of natural teeth.

Porcelain-Fused-To Metal Dental Crown is ideal for both front and back teeth, offering a balance between function and aesthetics. It is especially suitable for restoring damaged, broken, or root canal-treated teeth. Porcelain-Fused-To Metal Dental Crown can also help improve your bite, restore tooth shape, and enhance your overall smile while providing long-lasting support.

Porcelain-Fused-To Metal Dental Crown begins with a dental examination to assess the tooth’s condition. Next, the tooth is prepared by removing a small amount of enamel to make space for the crown. An impression of the prepared tooth is then taken using dental molding materials or a digital scanner. This impression is sent to a dental laboratory, where advanced equipment is used to craft a custom crown with a metal base for strength and a porcelain outer layer for a natural appearance. A temporary crown is placed while the permanent crown is being made. Once ready, the final crown is bonded to the tooth using dental cement, ensuring a secure fit and restored function.
