What are metal porcelain teeth

When people reach a certain age, their teeth will gradually age and our diet will become a problem. At this time, we need dentures. The key is what kind of dentures we need to choose. At this time, everyone should choose carefully. Metal porcelain teeth are divided into various types of porcelain teeth according to different materials and different technical aspects. Each type has its own characteristics. So what are metal porcelain teeth? Let me give you a brief introduction.

1. Gold inner crown. That is, precious metal porcelain teeth. The inner crown contains more than 84% gold, and also contains metals such as platinum and palladium, which can not only reduce the weight of the restoration, but also enhance its strength. It is not only not prone to metal allergies, but also helps the body's protein decomposition and absorption. It is the best among metal porcelain teeth. The price varies depending on the weight of gold used, and it has excellent biocompatibility. Safe for oral mucosal tissue. The gum color at the neck of the tooth has a natural warm tone, good aesthetic effect and realistic shape. The unique golden color and porcelain color matching effect are very ideal and will not harm natural teeth. Because precious metals do not undergo chemical corrosion in the human body environment, they have no toxic side effects on the human body and no black metal lines appear on the gums.

2. Gold deposition. The porcelain crown made with gold deposition technology reduces the mold-making process, reduces the production error, and ensures close contact with real teeth. Because the metal inner crown is very thin, porcelain is more natural and beautiful, and is the preferred type for front tooth restoration. Its characteristics are: no allergic reaction, beautiful and firm.

3. Nickel-chromium alloy. The inner crown is cast from the base metal nickel-chromium alloy. In the complex oral environment, the metal part exposed to the mouth will slowly decompose and release black oxides, causing local tissue staining. This is the most important reason why this type of restoration will cause black gum lines. Nickel-chromium alloy porcelain teeth do have disadvantages, the most common of which is causing symptoms such as darkening of the gums and allergies. Porcelain teeth made of nickel-chromium alloy are not stable enough, easily oxidized and not corrosion-resistant. Nickel ions are easily precipitated when immersed in the oral saliva environment for a long time. Although it is very safe, some patients may still have allergic reactions to nickel ions.

The above is my brief introduction to metal porcelain teeth. What are metal porcelain teeth? I believe everyone has a certain understanding of metal porcelain teeth. People who wear dentures should clean their dentures regularly. You can use toothpaste to clean each tooth, soak the dentures in water before going to bed at night, and clean the dentures slightly after eating.
