What Is Porcelain Dental Restoration?

Porcelain dental restoration is a cosmetic dental procedure that corrects the color, shape, and function of damaged, decayed, or misaligned teeth.

After gently reshaping the natural tooth to a certain extent (depending on the technique used), a porcelain crown is either placed over the entire tooth or bonded to the front surface. In some techniques, such as dental implants, 100% porcelain crowns are mounted on titanium posts to replace missing teeth entirely.

One key benefit of porcelain restorations is their natural appearance—they’re suitable for all types of teeth, from front teeth to molars. No matter where your dental issues are, both your smile and bite function can be significantly improved.

Premium Porcelain Dental Restoration Options

Based on the removability of the prosthetic, porcelain restorations are divided into two types: removable and fixed restorations.

Removable Restoration

This method uses removable dentures to replace part or all of the missing teeth. It is commonly used in cases of multiple or complete tooth loss.

The denture base is made from either hard or flexible plastic, with artificial teeth crafted from porcelain or resin. Some designs include metal clasps to secure the denture to your jaw.

Fixed Restoration

Fixed porcelain restorations are widely used in Vietnam today. In this method, porcelain crowns are permanently attached using either implants or reshaped natural teeth. Once secured, the crowns provide excellent stability and can restore up to 90% of the original tooth’s function and aesthetics.

Fixed restorations are durable and comfortable for chewing. Patients often report a natural, unobtrusive feeling after the procedure. However, this method typically costs more and takes longer than removable dentures.

Common Types of Premium Fixed Porcelain Restorations

There are five main techniques in fixed porcelain restoration:

Veneers

Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin shells, about 0.2–0.5 mm thick, bonded to the front of your teeth after minimal enamel shaving. This method is ideal for improving mildly stained, chipped, spaced, or misshapen teeth.

Dental Crowns

Crowns involve covering the entire visible part of a damaged tooth. The tooth is reshaped (0.3–0.5 mm shaved off) to fit the crown. This is a solution for teeth with large cavities, cracks, fractures, severe discoloration, or pulpitis.

The natural tooth underneath is protected, minimizing sensitivity. With high-quality porcelain, these crowns can last up to 30 years or more.

Porcelain Bridges

Porcelain bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth. Neighboring teeth are reshaped (like for crowns or veneers) to serve as anchors for the bridge. The false teeth are then securely attached between them.

Dental Implants

Implant-supported porcelain crowns involve surgically placing a titanium post into the jawbone to replace the tooth root. A crown is then attached to restore the tooth’s full structure. This solution offers the function of a real tooth and also helps prevent jawbone loss.
