What is a Porcelain Crown?
Porcelain crowns, or PFMs (Porcelain Fused Metal) crowns, are thin dental coverings attached to the whole surface of the teeth to improve their appearance. Their attachment provides a new, radiant, fresh look to the teeth, enabling the dentists to give new life to teeth that are chipped, grown, decayed, somewhat bent, or misshapen.
As for the thickness of the dental porcelain crowns, it revolves around around 2mm thickness, which allows it to fit in the same way as a covering cap. The crowns are then blended so perfectly with the teeth that noticing them requires a very close look.
