Several Factors Affecting the Service Life of Porcelain Teeth
Time：2025-04-28
Porcelain teeth are a very common type of dental restoration, with a wide range of applications. Of course, the price of making porcelain teeth is not cheap. Therefore, it is very important to select a high-quality porcelain tooth, extend its service life, and improve cost performance.The lifespan of porcelain teeth is often affected by many internal and external factors. Once affected by these factors, the lifespan will be greatly reduced. So, what are the factors that affect the lifespan of porcelain teeth?
1、The Quality and Design of Porcelain Teeth
A good restoration must first have a very reasonable design. If the design of porcelain teeth is unreasonable, it may cause phenomena such as false teeth fracture or loose natural teeth due to excessive stress. The external ceramic of porcelain teeth provides a good aesthetic effect, but at the same time, it cannot avoid its own shortcomings, that is, the problem of relatively brittle porcelain. Therefore, crowns that are improperly designed and fabricated are highly likely to cause cracks, fractures in the ceramic, or even the peeling of the ceramic from the metal surface when subjected to greater occlusal pressure.
2、The Biological Stability of the Materials Used
The inner metal structure of metal porcelain teeth not only provides reliable strength but also is in close contact with the soft and hard tissues of the mouth. The quality of its performance directly affects the physiological health of the mouth. A biologically stable and precisely fabricated inner metal structure of porcelain teeth can "coexist peacefully" with the soft and hard tissues of the mouth without affecting the oral environment. On the contrary, if the biological stability is not good, or the alloy material is of poor quality, it will cause adverse stimulation to the surrounding tissues, and phenomena such as corrosion, unstable metal ion penetration, and tissue allergy are prone to occur, thereby causing gingivitis, periodontitis, black lines at the gingival margin, etc.
3、The Edge Sealing of Porcelain Teeth
Porcelain teeth are fixed on the ground affected teeth through adhesives, and the gap between the porcelain teeth and the natural teeth is sealed by the cementing material. Therefore, the closer the fit between the crown and the teeth, and the smaller the gap between the two, the more conducive it is to preserving the natural teeth. Otherwise, the larger the gap between the two, or the poor quality of the cementing agent, will lead to bacteria entering the gap and causing corrosion to the natural teeth, thereby affecting the service life of the porcelain teeth. If the crown and the teeth do not fit closely, it may even lead to adverse reactions such as dental caries in the restored teeth. Therefore, it is very necessary to choose porcelain teeth produced by manufacturers with guaranteed quality。
4、The Use of Patients with Porcelain Teeth
No matter how good the restoration is, to increase its service life, its maintenance must not be ignored. Even for natural teeth, we know to avoid biting hard objects and pay attention to oral hygiene. If you don't pay attention to these, your own natural teeth will deteriorate, let alone porcelain teeth? Therefore, to a large extent, the service life of porcelain teeth is closely related to the user's usage habits。
How to extend the service life of porcelain teeth? Here is the most effective and simple suggestion for you: Before deciding to have porcelain teeth, choose a regular dental hospital or clinic. Under the introduction of the dentist, choose a good metal material or all-ceramic teeth, and at the same time, do a good job in the daily maintenance of porcelain teeth. Only in this way can the service life of porcelain teeth be effectively extended。
The cobalt-chromium laser porcelain teeth produced by China Dental Lab use imported porcelain powder materials and cobalt-chromium metal materials. They are made by CAD/CAM digital technology and imported foreign equipment through laser layer-by-layer accumulation and melting and 3D printing. Compared with traditional porcelain teeth, due to the reduction of manual operations, the error and casting defects are greatly reduced, making the final accuracy of dentures higher and the service life longer.
With high precision, good metal performance, strong stability, and excellent biocompatibility, it is the first choice for dental restoration at home and abroad.
