Materials

Porcelain-fused-to-metal is used to provide strength to a crown or bridge. These restorations are very strong, durable and resistant to wear, because the combination of porcelain and metal creates a stronger restoration than porcelain used alone.

Full-porcelain dental materials are used mainly as metal-free "jacket crowns", in-lays, on-lays, and aesthetic veneers. Full-porcelain restorations are particularly desirable because their color and translucency mimic natural tooth enamel.

Zirconia is high-performance ceramics. This material could not be processed using the traditional methods used in dentistry. Because of its high strength and comparatively much higher fracture toughness, sintered zirconium-oxide can be used in posterior crowns, bridges and implant abutments.

Alumina or porcelain-fused-to-alumina set the standard for high aesthetics in dentistry because they are strong and their color and translucency mimic natural tooth enamel. This material has proven long-term clinical success in both single-tooth restorations and anterior 2-4 unit bridges.
