Dental Metal Porcelain Crown
Metal-porcelain crowns, also known as porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crowns, are a popular and versatile type of dental crown used to restore and protect damaged or weakened teeth. They offer a combination of strength, provided by the metal substructure, and aesthetics, due to the outer layer of porcelain. This makes them suitable for various situations, including:
- Severely damaged or fractured teeth: When a large portion of the tooth structure is compromised, a crown provides the necessary stability and protection.
- Cracked or broken teeth: Crowns can restore the structural integrity of teeth with significant cracks or fractures, preventing further damage.
- Severely worn teeth: In cases of excessive wear and tear, a crown can restore the tooth’s shape and function.
- Root canal-treated teeth: Crowns can protect teeth that have undergone root canal therapy, which can become more brittle due to the removal of the pulp.
- Cosmetic concerns: Crowns can improve the aesthetics of teeth by masking discoloration, misshapen teeth, or gaps between teeth.

Benefits of Metal-Porcelain Crowns
- Durability and strength: The metal substructure provides exceptional strength and long-lasting wear, making them suitable for teeth subjected to high biting forces.
- Aesthetics: The porcelain layer is carefully matched to the color of your natural teeth, ensuring a natural-looking restoration.
- Versatility: Metal-porcelain crowns can be used for various purposes, including restoring damaged teeth, improving aesthetics, and protecting root canal-treated teeth.
- Biocompatibility: Both metal and porcelain are generally well-tolerated by most patients.
- Relatively affordable: Compared to other types of crowns, such as all-ceramic, metal-porcelain crowns are typically more affordable.
Potential Risks and Complications
Metal-porcelain crowns are generally safe and well-tolerated; however, some potential risks and complications exist:
- Chipping or fracturing: While durable, the porcelain layer can chip or fracture under excessive force, such as biting on hard objects.
- Gum irritation: The metal margin of the crown might irritate the gum tissue in some cases, requiring adjustment or replacement.
- Allergic reactions: In rare instances, some individuals may experience allergic reactions to the metal used in the substructure.
