Porcelain crowns are a recent exciting development in dentistry that allows us to restore teeth with a material that matches the characteristics of our own tooth enamel.

Unlike the crowns of the past which had a metal substructure and wouldn’t allow light to pass through them, porcelain is translucent, just like enamel. This gives to it a much more natural, life-like appearance allowing us to restore teeth in such a natural way as to make them unnoticeable. In addition, an all porcelain crown can be bonded firmly to your tooth, which provides greater strength than the traditional crown.
