What is PFM (Porcelain Fusion Metal) Crown? In Which Situations Is It Applied?

PFM crowns are dental restorations that have a metal substructure (a silver-colored material, usually made of alloys) and an outer porcelain crown. The metal substructure increases the durability of the crown, while the porcelain veneer provides the natural appearance and aesthetics of the tooth. Therefore, PFM crowns offer both durability and aesthetics together.

  • PFM crowns are used to restore severely decayed or damaged teeth. Their metal substructure increases the durability of the tooth and restores chewing function.
  • PFM crowns can be used to repair fractures in teeth. They can provide resistance to strong chewing forces, especially in the back teeth.
  • PFM crowns can be preferred to strengthen weakened or weakened teeth after root canal treatment.
  • PFM crowns can also be used on anterior teeth and can be applied for aesthetic purposes to correct the color, shape or size of teeth. However, all-metal substructures are not a common aesthetic option, so there are also more aesthetic crown options for anterior teeth.
  • PFM materials can also be used as the substructure of dental bridges used to compensate for missing teeth.

What are the Advantages of PFM (Porcelain Fusion Metal) Crowns?

PFM (Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal) crowns offer several advantages. They combine the strength of a metal substructure with the natural look of porcelain. This dual structure makes them durable and suitable for both front and back teeth. PFM crowns provide good longevity, resisting wear and tear. They are also customizable in terms of color and shape, ensuring a more natural appearance, making them a popular choice for restorative purposes where both strength and aesthetics are important.
