4 Materials
Materials for Crowns and Bridges at Sydney Cosmetic Dentist
While in the past, metal-based crowns and bridges were used to rebuild or strengthen teeth, today’s prostheses are created with advanced materials that are durable and beautiful. Resin and porcelain may be used, and for those who want something very different, we can make your smile sparkle with gold or diamonds.
Our diamond smile includes only top-quality gems that are beautifully inlaid into precious metals. Dr Peter Poulos can design your crown or bridge that is valuable and customised to you, allowing you to express your personality in a very unique way.
Porcelain is the most popular material for dental crowns and bridges, as it matches natural teeth in colour and sheen. Once in place, these dental solutions look and function just like natural teeth. Porcelain is also stain-resistant and can last 10 years or more. In some cases, a crown or bridge may include a metal substructure, but the highest-quality prostheses do not contain metal.
