Esthetics of Translucency


The patient loved her new crowns! 
Her old ones (porcelain-fused-to-metal) were very opaque so that no light could shine through.  This greatly reduced esthetic appeal, and they looked fake.  These new ones are made of different material and allow for light to show from behind - very similar to tooth enamel.  The perceived glow greatly enhances esthetic appeal.  Thank you Tosch Laboratory!
