Porcelain Restorations
Achieve Perfect Smiles with Porcelain Dental Restorations
Missing one or more teeth can impact more than just your smile–it can affect your ability to eat, speak, and feel confident every day. At The Dental Hub in Columbus, OH, we offer dental implants as a permanent, natural-looking solution to replace missing teeth and restore both the appearance and the function of your natural teeth.
Whether you’re replacing a single tooth or exploring full-arch restoration, our dentists—Dr. Anthony DiNapoli, Dr. Daniel Lebowitz, and Dr. Kyle Zumfelde—will build a custom treatment plan to support your long-term oral health and quality of life.
Why Choose Porcelain for Your Dental Restorations?
Porcelain and ceramic crowns are widely chosen for their ability to closely mimic the natural look and feel of tooth enamel. They reflect light similarly to your natural teeth, making them an excellent option for both front teeth and back teeth, depending on your needs.
Porcelain is often considered the material of choice for:
- Crowns
- Bridges
- Inlays and onlays
- Veneers
- Some types of dental implants and restorations
It’s also a great alternative if you’re allergic to metal crowns or simply prefer a more natural feel.
What to Expect with a Porcelain Restoration
When you visit The Dental Hub for a porcelain dental restoration, we begin with a thorough consultation to assess your specific dental needs and determine the best treatment option–whether its a crown, inlay, onlay, or veneer. If porcelain is the right fit for you, we’ll take precise impressions of your teeth to create a custom crown or restoration that fits seamlessly with the rest of your teeth.
Your restoration will be crafted at a trusted dental lab, carefully shaped and shaded to match your surrounding teeth. Once it’s ready, we’ll place the restoration, check the fit and bite, and make any necessary adjustments to ensure it feels comfortable and completely natural. Then we’ll bond it using durable dental materials for lasting results.
Porcelain Crowns, Inlays, Onlays, and More
If you’ve had a root canal, need to replace a large filling, or want to protect a weakened tooth, porcelain offers a strong, natural-looking solution. The type of restoration you need–whether it’s a crown, inlay, onlay, or veneer–will depend on the health of the tooth, the extent of decay or damage, and your personal preferences.
Not sure which restoration options are best for you? Our dentists will walk you through each possibility and help you choose the right material based on aesthetics, durability, and function.
Benefits of Porcelain Restorations
Porcelain restorations offer many benefits, making them an ideal choice for dental work.
Natural Appearance
Porcelain closely mimics the color, texture, and light-reflecting qualities of natural teeth, making it ideal for highly visible areas of your mouth.
Long-Lasting Results
With proper care and good oral hygiene, porcelain restorations can last for many years, making them a durable and excellent choice.
Safe for Sensitive Patients
Unlike some metal crowns, porcelain is less likely to cause an allergic reaction, making it a good choice for patients with metal sensitivities. The non-porous nature of porcelain prevents the absorption of bacteria and food particles, reducing the likelihood of irritation.
Maintaining Porcelain Restorations
To protect your porcelain crown or restoration, it’s important to maintain good oral hygiene with regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups. Avoid biting hard objects like ice, pens, or hard candy which can chip even the strongest materials. With regular dental visits, we’ll monitor your restoration and ensure it supports your oral health.
