Porcelain Restorations

At Aurora Hills Dental, we’re pleased to provide our patients with the option of receiving all-porcelain dental restorations.

Why Choose Porcelain Restorations?

While some dental restorations like crowns, fillings, inlays, and onlays are made from composite resin or ceramic fused to metal, these restorative dental treatment materials do not offer all the benefits that pure porcelain restorations can.

Durability

Although you might associate porcelain with delicate teacups, it is actually a surprisingly strong and durable material for use in dental restorations. In fact, it offers about the same level of strength and durability as natural teeth.

As a result, porcelain restorations are quite long-lasting and can stand up to the regular wear and tear of daily use.

Versatility

When it comes to restorative and cosmetic dental treatments, porcelain is a highly versatile material. It can be used to manufacture a variety of dental restorations including:

Veneers
Caps and crowns
Implant crowns
Dental bridges
Inlays and onlays

If you need a dental restoration or a cosmetic treatment, we encourage you to ask Dr. Zalesky about your material options and the benefits of choosing porcelain.

Natural Look

Of all materials used in dental restorations, porcelain offers by far the most natural look. It comes in a variety of tooth-colored shades and has a partial translucence that closely mimics the look of natural tooth enamel. As a result, porcelain restorations blend seamlessly with the rest of your natural teeth.

Metal-Free

Additionally, for patients who have allergies or sensitivities to various metal materials, pure porcelain restorations offer an allergen and irritant-free option that is completely safe, attractive, long-lasting, and durable.
