What Are Metal Substructure Porcelains?

Metal substructure porcelains are one of the most established and reliable prosthetic solutions in dentistry, combining durability with a classic approach. These frameworks, made from specialized dental alloys, are layered with porcelain powders to achieve the desired tooth shape and shade.

They are frequently preferred for posterior teeth where chewing forces are highest, as they provide exceptional strength. They offer a biocompatible, long-lasting, and cost-effective treatment option.

Why Choose Metal Substructure Porcelain?

High Durability

The metal core provides superior resistance to fractures and cracks under pressure.

Cost-Effective

A budget-friendly aesthetic option compared to alternatives like Zirconium.

Proven Success

A reliable material used for decades with consistently high clinical success rates.

Versatility

Suitable for everything from single crowns to full-arch fixed bridges.

Treatment Stages

  • Preparation: Teeth are precisely shaped for the porcelain and digital or physical impressions are taken.
  • Temporary Crowns: Temporaries are fitted immediately to protect your teeth and maintain aesthetics.
  • Metal Try-in: The fit and gum alignment of the laboratory-made metal framework are checked in the mouth.
  • Porcelain Try-in: The color and shape of the tooth are tested for harmony with your facial features.
  • Cementation: Once perfected, your prosthesis is permanently bonded to your teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the treatment take?

Usually completed in 3-5 sessions. Single crowns can be finished in 3-4 days, while full-mouth restorations may take 10-12 days.

Will it cause any allergies?

The alloys used are biocompatible. However, for patients with specific metal allergies (like nickel), we recommend zirconium alternatives.
