Porcelain veneered crown or Porcelain fused to metal crown is a hybrid between all-metal crown and all porcelain crown. When being manufactured, our dental technicians will make a shell of metal (substructure) that is custom fitted for your affected tooth. A veneer of porcelain is then fused over this metal, giving the crown a white tooth-like appearance. Porcelain fused to metal crowns has the advantages of having a nearly natural appearance from the porcelain, and the strength and stability provided by the underlying metal.
Degudent® LS
 Degudent® LS is a high noble alloy with 87% gold, 5.8% palladium and 7% silver. Degudent® LS is a micro-fine, extra-hard alloy suitable for single crowns and long span bridgework, milled restorations in conjunction with precision attachments, partial dentures and implant superstructures. Degudent® LS displays a golden color and can be veneered with Duceragold® Porcelain. Our premium crown utilizes this low fusing porcelain in a four-layer build up. Both restorations provide outstanding results that will rival all-ceramic crowns; yet they can be cemented in a conventional manner.
This is an advanced metallurgical technology for producing high gold content, yellow metal substructures. This 22-karat gold substructure offers the strength and stability of a platinum-palladium alloy. So strong in fact, that this material is  equally suitable for both single crowns and bridges.
It has a unique metallurgical structure called a "dual phase interpenetrating composite." When combined with an electrolyte (saliva), a very small electrical charge results. Researchers are calling this a "bacteriostatic effect," and it is reported to repel plaque and bacteria.
