PFM Crowns

Porcelain Fused to Metal (PFM) crowns are a popular and time-tested solution in restorative dentistry, blending the durability of metal with the aesthetic appeal of porcelain. These crowns are used to restore severely damaged or decayed teeth, ensuring both functional integrity and a natural appearance.

The structure of a PFM crown involves a metal alloy substructure, which provides strength and stability, covered by a layer of porcelain that mimics the natural translucency and color of tooth enamel. This combination allows PFM crowns to withstand significant biting forces while maintaining a pleasing visual appearance, making them suitable for both anterior and posterior teeth.
