Popular types of porcelain teeth
Currently, there are many types of porcelain crowns for you to choose from. You should find the type that suits your body, financial ability and purpose, combined with the advice of a doctor:
Titanium porcelain teeth
This is a type of porcelain teeth with a frame made from titanium alloy and covered with a layer of porcelain on the outside. Titanium porcelain teeth have high hardness and are easily compatible with the jawbone. Although they are metal porcelain teeth, Titan porcelain teeth are very safe and do not cause gum irritation. However, because they are not monolithic porcelain, Titan porcelain teeth can still cause black gum lines after a period of use.
Cercon porcelain teeth
Cercon porcelain teeth can overcome the black gum lines of metal porcelain teeth. The cost of Cercon porcelain teeth is quite high because this type of porcelain teeth requires meticulous manufacturing and the use of high-quality materials.
Zirconia Porcelain Teeth
This is also a high-end all-ceramic porcelain tooth similar to Cercon porcelain teeth. Zirconia all-ceramic teeth are very durable, shiny, and highly safe, so they are often recommended.
DOES PORCELAIN TEETH AFFECT HEALTH?
When using porcelain teeth, our real teeth will be ground down. Therefore, many people worry that this method will affect real teeth and damage tooth tissue. However, with the current development of porcelain teeth technology, real tooth tissue will be preserved and will not affect health. However, if the porcelain teeth technique is poor, it can be harmful to the teeth. Therefore, you need to choose a reputable dental clinic to be examined and advised on the most suitable type to achieve aesthetic results as well as high efficiency.
