Throughout the years most crown (caps) and bridge work was fabricated
by creating an underlying metal substructure and then baking porcelain,
in a specified shade onto the metal surface. While this still proves to
be a highly successful form of treatment there is a new option
available that does not have the underlying metal in the crown.
NobelBiocare™ has introduced Procera crowns. These unique crowns have a
ceramic substructure, and the porcelain is then baked onto this
surface. Elimination of the underlying metal allows for a more
translucent end product. This type of crown is especially nice for
front teeth, where the most natural look is desired.
