The eternal question – metal-ceramic crown, metal-free zirconia porcelain, or perhaps pressed ceramic?
Most people choose metal-ceramic crowns only for the back, chewing zone. No wonder it is highly recommended here due to its load capacity and excellent price / value ratio.
A further difference may be that in the case of metal-framed crowns, the appearance of a grey lane at the neck of the teeth or at the edge of the gums may occur later, in the case of zirconia porcelain crowns this phenomenon should not be expected. Due to the aesthetic differences, we recommend the zirconia porcelain crown in the visible front region. The pressed ceramic crown with even more aesthetic characteristics is recommended in the case of restoration with solo crowns.
