Common questions
Are porcelain crowns permanent?
With good oral care they usually last 10–15 years, sometimes longer.
Does the procedure hurt?
The teeth are prepared under local anaesthetic, so you usually feel no pain. Some mild sensitivity for a few days afterwards is normal.
Do porcelain crowns look natural?
Porcelain lets light through much like enamel, so it looks very close to a natural tooth.
Do they need special care?
No special care — regular brushing, flossing and check-ups keep them healthy for a long time.
