Metal-ceramic crowns consist of a metal structure and a ceramic layer that completely covers the metal. The metal structure provides strength and security, while the ceramic layer contributes to the aesthetic properties of the crown.
These crowns are used to solve partial edentulism, are an excellent replacement for existing defective fillings, and allow for changes in the shape, position, and color of the teeth.
The downside of metal-ceramic crowns is the appearance of a livid edge around the gums.
Therefore, their use in the aesthetic region is not recommended. The entire procedure for making metal-ceramic crowns takes 5-7 days.
