When a tooth has been weakened, damaged or significantly restored, your dentist may discuss options to help protect its structure and restore its function.
Porcelain is used in certain dental restorations because it can be shaped and colour-matched to work with the surrounding teeth. The most appropriate option depends on the tooth, the amount of remaining healthy structure and your bite.
Your dentist can explain the available choices, including the benefits, limitations and alternatives, before you decide how to proceed.
