METAL SUPPORTED PORCELAIN CROWNS IN TURKEY

What are metal supported porcelain dental crowns?

Dental crowns are specially moulded synthetic additions to damaged teeth, consolidating the remains of the tooth below, while providing the patient with normal chewing function and an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Dental crowns are applied in the following situations. They:

• are used to support and strengthen weak teeth
• provide an aesthetically pleasing alternative to broken, deformed or stained teeth
• can be applied to patients who are not satisfied with their dental balance and smile
• are used as the preferred superstructure for a dental implant
• correct distorted and cracked teeth.
• protect the root canal damaged teeth

Many patients wonder about the difference between dental crowns and veneers. Both methods of treatment offer similar aesthetic advantages, whereas veneers only cover the front face of the tooth, while the dental crown will cover the entire tooth.
