Traditionally, dental crowns were always made with metal and were a sore sight as these look so very different in contrast to natural white teeth. But now with advances in cosmetic dentistry, dental crowns have been created from porcelain which can mimic and give you natural and realistic teeth. Consult an orthodontist in Leeds who can help you get the perfect porcelain crowns and give you a smile makeover.
It is important to get porcelain crowns fitted when a tooth is broken or badly damaged, if left unattended the adjacent teeth can also get decayed due to infection or lose its strength over a period of time causing various dental problems. These crowns, if fitted by a specialized dentist, can give you naturally looking teeth; it would even be difficult to tell apart the real from the fake. Porcelain crowns are a natural white and hence there is no need to do any extra whitening procedure to make it look realistic.
Cerec and Empress Crowns are a variation of porcelain crowns; the former is made from ceramic and the latter from a material called Empress pressed ceramic. These can also be used though they have a few limitations when compared to the porcelain ones. Porcelain crowns are especially opted by people to replace lost or missing front teeth as this area is most visible when you smile. There are also porcelain crowns which are fused with metal ones but these have the disadvantage of leaving a dark line near the gums over a period of time.
So if you are looking to replace lost or damaged teeth, get porcelain crowns which can give you natural looking teeth for a beautiful, sparkling smile.
