Metal-based dentures are one of the prosthetic procedures applied in tooth loss. These dentures, also referred to as dental crowns, have various advantages and disadvantages. These dentures, successfully applied for many years and a solution to permanent tooth loss, are not preferred much compared to materials such as laminate and zirconia. However, in some cases, the use of metal-based dentures is more necessary and preferable.
What is Metal-Based Denture?
Let us look at what exactly is different from other types of veneers. It is a type of veneers with cobalt, nickel and chromium used in the substructure. Porcelain in the superstructure. Since light in not transmitted well by the metal, a matt-looking tooth appearance is obtained. For zirconia and laminate dentures, it is the opposite. Therefore, for a matt appearance, you should prefer this type of dentures.
Why Are They Preferred?
Though not suitable for anterior teeth, metal-based dentures are easy to use in posterior teeth. It is better to use zirconia or leaf laminate for aesthetic concerns in upper anterior teeth. However, these veneer types are quite high in terms of price. The use of these veneers on all teeth will cause a very high cost. However, metal-based prostheses can be preferred in invisible places. Thus, both a functional and more cost-effective prosthetic application can be provided.
Denture is also necessary in case of tissue loss in the teeth to be filled. Dentures are also preferred to ensure porcelain can hold on to the tooth roots better.
How is the Procedure for the Treatment with Metal-Based Dentures?
In this process, the teeth are generally reduced to adapt them to metal and porcelain. The mouth is measured and then a mould is made. The denture is obtained and produced in accordance with the extracted mould. These are porcelain veneers in which metal alloys such as chromium, cobalt and nickel. They are used as the substructure. The superstructure is shaped with the appropriate porcelain system. Having short mould preparation time makes possible to prepare the denture in a short time.
