Dentist placing a porcelain crown to restore a damaged tooth using modern dental techniques

What Are Porcelain Crowns?

Porcelain crowns are custom-made restorations designed to cover and protect damaged, weakened, or heavily restored teeth. Crafted from high-quality ceramic materials, these crowns mimic the color, shape, and translucency of natural teeth, delivering both functional strength and aesthetic excellence.

Porcelain crowns are commonly used to restore fractured teeth, strengthen teeth after root canals, improve shape or alignment, and enhance overall smile appearance.
