What are porcelain crowns?

Porcelain crowns are tooth-shaped restorations made primarily from ceramic or porcelain materials. They are valued for their ability to closely replicate the light-reflecting properties of natural tooth enamel — producing a result that blends seamlessly with surrounding teeth.

The term “porcelain crown” covers two distinct types of restorations: all-ceramic crowns such as E-max, and porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns (PFM), where porcelain is bonded over a metal substructure. Each has specific indications, advantages, and limitations.
