What are PFM Crowns?

A porcelain fused to metal crown is a dental restoration that combines a durable metal core with a porcelain outer layer, creating a balance of strength and aesthetics. These crowns are versatile and suitable for both front and back teeth.

The metal base provides the durability needed for long-term restorations, while the porcelain overlay is crafted to match the natural tooth colour for a seamless appearance. This combination makes PFM crowns a trusted option for dental professionals.

With their proven reliability and aesthetic appeal, PFM crowns are an excellent choice for addressing various dental restoration needs.

Why Choose PFM Crowns for Your Patients?

Durability and Strength

The metal core provides exceptional structural support, making them ideal for restorations on teeth that endure heavy biting forces, such as molars.

Natural Look

The porcelain fused to the metal is highly aesthetic, offering a lifelike translucency that mimics the appearance of natural teeth.

Versatility for Various Restorations

Whether for single-tooth restorations, bridges, or even for partial crowns, PFM can meet the unique needs of each patient.

Long-Lasting Solution

With proper care and maintenance, they can withstand years of wear and tear.

Biocompatibility

PFM crowns are biocompatible, meaning they are generally well-tolerated by the gums and surrounding tissues.

Cost-Effective Option

They are often more affordable than all-ceramic crowns while still delivering excellent strength, aesthetics, and durability

Why should I choose PFM restorations for my patients?

PFM crowns offer a durable metal core for strength and a porcelain overlay for natural aesthetics, making them a reliable and versatile choice for restorations.

PFM crowns are suitable for most patients, particularly those requiring long-term strength and a natural look for dental restorations.

With proper care, PFM crowns can last over a decade, offering durability and reliability for various dental applications.
