Perfect Porcelain Crowns

There are several porcelain materials that can be used to produce crowns with a natural and beautiful appearance. Knowing which one to use for a given situation is essential as one type of porcelain will not meet all clinical indications.

The first case example below shows the difference between crowns that were made and placed in Thailand, and crowns provided by a Specialist in our practice. The difference is quite obvious, with the old crowns seeming opaque, joined together, and generally appearing to be fake teeth. The new crowns are difficult to distinguish from their adjacent natural counterparts.

The second case demonstrates how fine quality, locally made porcelain crowns and veneers will create a perfect and natural appearance, when they are expertly placed on teeth.
