Porcelain Crowns and Onlays

Porcelain restorations such as crowns and onlays are not only more aesthetically pleasing, but they are also considered a more conservative dental treatment than the use of traditional crowns. Porcelain crowns and onlays are made of porcelain instead of metal, and allow the dentist to conserve tooth structure, provide an optimum contact with adjacent teeth, and avoid potential corrosion that can occur with metal. Porcelain crowns and onlays are chemically adhered to the tooth for a strong, long-lasting bond.

Porcelain crowns, also known as caps, cover the entire surface area of a tooth, serving both a cosmetic and practical function. Crowns reinforce teeth that have cracked or are in danger of cracking and mask imperfections in shape and color. Porcelain crowns make your teeth more resistant to injury and disease. An onlay sits on the tooth to build up its shape.

The process is not lengthy and the patient’s smile is perfect! If you’re interested in porcelain crowns, contact our office and arrange a consultation.
