The porcelain veneers, which have been used for many years in treating teeth that have lost material due to various reasons or missing teeth, are still one of the most commonly used treatment methods today. Currently, metal-supported porcelain veneers are the most widely used dental prostheses.

​

The substrate of the porcelain veneer can consist of different materials. Metal-supported porcelain veneers are made by placing a metal alloy under the porcelain. In metal-supported veneers made using Chromium-Cobalt or Chromium-Nickel alloy with the required durability suitable for dental tissue, the metal under the porcelain placed on the porcelain is affected by the substrate metal. The substructure metal creates a matte appearance and a dark line at the gumline because it does not transmit light. Thus, metal-supported dental veneers are not aesthetically recommended, especially for the teeth in the anterior region.

​

What are the advantages of metal-supported porcelain veneers?

• Porcelain veneers are characterized by their durability, thanks to the advantage of their metal substrates.

• Metal-supported porcelain veneers are more economical than other bonding methods.

• They may also be aesthetically satisfying due to the porcelain material.

• The materials are safe, and they do not show any side effects.
